For those who wondered about the damage to poor Toke...



(the screen itself is not cracked -- it's all internal.)

That's exactly what happened to my son's DS screen when it got closed with the stylus inside.

Nothing got closed in this, it didn't get dropped or stepped on (unless Boomer decided to sit on it, which is possible...). It was merely packed into my bad and put in the car and taken up to Boston....

and *splat*

that looks like one of the original Asus EEE pc's ?

If you're not looking to take this as a chance to upgrade, I have one of those (in black) in a drawer that I bought when they came out and never ended up using - I keep meaning to figure out where to sell it, but I know there are newer models out, so I'm sure I wouldn't get hardly anything for it :)

[lagilman]

it is (was), and I've decided to upgrade, yeah. You might want to think about donating it to your local school or library? It was designed after the "one laptop per child" model, after all....

Introducing - the Rorschach netbook...

It looks like it's screaming in endless horror!

I just don't understand, why you people can't see that it's a Rocketship!

Geeking ...

About Toke --
do you still have Toke? I'm faunching after a wounded netbook for an experiment.
