Introducing Robie...

[lagilman]

Because what can you do when your new laptop is stylish, subtle, durable, up-front, and is already giving you a run for your money, but name it for one of your all-time favorite leading characters with the same characteristics: John Robie, aka Cary Grant?

H. H. Hughson: You are a man of obvious good taste in everything. Why did you...
John Robie: Why did I take up stealing? To live better, to own things I couldn't afford, to acquire this good taste that you now enjoy and which I should be very reluctant to give up.
H. H. Hughson: Then you are frankly dishonest.
John Robie: I try to be.

-- "To Catch a Thief"



(for those looking for specifics, Robie's a Latitude D520. Matte black and charcoal gray chassis, lovely display, and a keyboard that's a joy to type on)

Robie's much more sophisticated than my Tim. The Enchanter. *g*

Sophisticated, perhaps. Speedy, no. But that's okay -- I have Houseboy for stuff that needs more zippity.
