Random Thought Thread

I am looking at two laptops. One is an HP with a 1TB HD and removable battery, but it's wifi card is 108.11ac 1x1. Configured with Blu-ray, it's $250 more than the Toshiba with in-built battery but it has a 2TB hard drive and 108.11ac 2x2.

The problem I have with the Toshiba I have is pulling it out of the bag, which is why I broke it--squeezing it too tight. The extended battery of the HP acts as a handle, which would alleviate that problem.

I'm thinking I might just go with Toshiba and get some Sugru... make my own pulling handle on the bottom of the laptop. I can live without Blu-ray.

Opinions?

Toshiba > HP
...never been a fan of HP, except for the sauce.
 
HPs are easy to work on, and they have an online catalog for parts.

My issues with the Toshiba's involve non-user-removable batteries and flexible lids-- I broke my touchscreen by squeezing to hard pulling the laptop out of my bag.

I think I will get the Toshiba at Wal-Mart anyway... I can get a two year replacement insurance for $80 that covers cracked screens and I'm still ahead.

According To Science, This Is The Perfect And Best Road Trip You Can Possibly Take

That would be so fun! I've only seen 4 of the places on the list, I just went to Fort Snelling last summer (I think for the very first time even though it's not that far from me); I got to take a trip to DC for work 2 yrs ago, so I've seen the White House (just from the outside). I've also seen Mount Rushmore on the way to visit my brother in CO - who lives near Pike's Peak so I saw that, too. But I think a road trip like this would be a blast :)
