I guess it was about time........

As most of you know by now, old TAB is not prone to
A.  Bragging
B.  Blowing one's own horn
C.  Rubbing things in
D.  Hyperbole
F.  Telling untruths

But I could not resist writing my first post on my BRAND NEW HP LAPTOP !!!!!!!!!    na na ...na ..na... na na



You see I use a puter for emails, business web sites and advertising, an occasional post to this blog, and researching data on the web, online banking, online shopping, online bill paying and little else.................

I have been using a Netbook which allowed me to do almost everything I need to do..it has a remote printer and a remote mouse if I choose to use them. It was light and I could take it anywhere and use it with my
4G wireless internet usb modem....

It did not have an abundance of memory, nor disc space..it had no DVD drive which I need occasionally,
and it was in the current state of technology slow.....So........

Having a keen  eye for things you don't see everyday I spotted this 15.6 HP Compaq Presario CQ56 on sale at wallyworld for 289.95......ok...it only has 2GB ?Ram and a 250GB hard drive but it does all I need to do and more and faster and I don't have to squint to see the screen........Full size keyboard so I don't get 3 letters with each touch of the fingers......

The little one will stay at the business as it is well capable of doing all that needs done there. and big daddy will remain home safe and secure........

I likes it.....now to see what those porn movies look like on the Big Screen......LOL........

  3. Fringe...not to worry I hope...I have been very very blessed that in 2 years of running Norton 360 5.0 I have never had any intrusion of any kind..malware, sypware, trojan or anything else...
    Keep your fingers crossed.....

    Besides, I only have 5 months to worry about it as the world is going to end again...........

  4. Whit....your right on all three accounts...it was a bargain, yes it's more like a toy to me, and yes I will enjoy it. As I don't play games on it, or watch tv on it, or any of that crap $289.00 was a steal to me for a full size laptop to do what I do...but I am sure by the end of the summer there will be a bigger better less expensive one as the prices seem to be coming down all the time.....

    Now if I could just find a Nikon camera, with built in iphone, gps system, net book, 42inch flat screen tv and weed eater I could take all this crap to the flea market.....
