| From: Christopher Browne via talk <[email protected]> | It's 2018, and the reason I'm looking for something newer mostly has to do | with the fact that such a cheap laptop has a fairly fragile case
I find I treat my netbooks more roughly than I treat my ultrabook that cost 5 or 7 times as much (I have two netbooks, thus the two factors). Being able to treat it more rougly makes it more useful. Think: jeans vs suit. I'm fascinated by tacit differences like this. Another example: I find fan noise disturbing (in proportion to its volume) but also it adds to my tension about battery life. In the electric car world, a similar phenomenon is called "range anxiety". --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
