My precious!

So here I am, again. Took me some time again, but quite faster than last time. Since this is somewhat like a revolution in Chaosteil-computing, you can expect that I will blog a lil' more often and regulary. It's not that anything happened with my already sick mind, no, it's just that I got a new gadget, which is quite awesome.

I've got an Eee PC. THE beast in ultraportable (and cheap, don't forget, being a cheap-ass is awesome) computing, and this blog will be quite just about bragging how awesome it is.

Well first of all, this is quite my first REAL laptop, the other ones before that were the ones of my parents or else, so they weren't actually mine. Except my first one.
Being obsessed since my childhood with high-tech and shizz, I decided to get a very cheap one, used, whatever. It had about 16 Mhz (which was even then as lame as you could get), a black-white screen and about 2 seconds of runtime without A/C. Yeah, it was lame. But it had one significant thing, which was at that time quite awesome for me: QuickBasic. Hell yes. With QuickBasic I learned many things about programming. Yeah, maaany. Actually not: I could do simple I/O, never heard of any cycles and never tried to get any better, maybe because I couldn't quite understand the higher level syntax of other source codes, and maybe because I was simply focused on making text adventures, which were quite lame in their own ways (My text adventures of course, Zork is still awesome)

Soo here I am again, but this time I have a quite nice laptop. It isn't quite the death machine a geek like me dreams of, but it fills its purpose: I can code with it.
One of the first things I've done with this PC: install nethack. Well yeah, but after that I installed all my basic coding utilities:

sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion

And that's it! The last thing I'm waiting for is Code::Blocks, but even that isn't necessary on this little thing, as it got kwrite already installed, which is a nice on-the-go editor. And it has helluva lot already installed. It would really be sad to format everything, as it has everything needed for using an operating system. As I said, a neat, small, on-the-go laptop.

And with on-the-go, I mean on-the-go. This laptop, is ultra, no, hyperportable, I can even brush my teeth with one hand and surf the web with my other hand, while holding the laptop in it. It is really small, fast (I have yet to experience something like a slowdown or an instance, where it is slower than my desktop), lightweight, and hell, it has my favorite operating system running smooth on it. Even if it was first very hard to get used to that damn keyboard, now I'm even touchtyping with it nicely, with minimal backspace-using, so in a few days I can start to code normally and fluently without any hickups.

Well, so this was my quite biased "review" about the Eee. If there are any questions, give me a comment.

PS: It is really a waste to not carry this little fella everywhere you go. It is designed to be ultraportable, so let it be an ultraportable laptop.
