A few weeks ago, I wrote to say that I acquired a new laptop computer. I still love it, and it's working great. In the interim, I have also found gainful employment for the summer. (Yay for cool jobs!).
Well today, I made a frivolous purchase. The one thing I've missed about having a laptop is that the monitor is just a little ... well ... little. I still have an external keyboard and mouse (bluetooth) so I decided I'd buy an external monitor. The plan is that while I'm at home, I can simply close my laptop, and use it as though it were a desktop computer. When I have a class, or want to go "on the road", I can disconnect the speakers and monitor (everything else is wireless), and off I go.
The wild thing is that - WITH MY WIFE PRESENT - I bought a 22" Wide Screen LCD Monitor. It has both digital and analog inputs. It rocks!!! Any my wife was there when I bought it - that's the best part!
