Skipped out of the gym… heh!
I just have to rant about some random stuff for a moment.
The weather… for all of those in the miltown area… I’m sure you’ve noticed; it looks like our little honeymoon with mother nature is over. It’s getting frickin cold, and and the 10 day forecast shows not getting any warmer any time soon, it’s January… so I guess I can’t complain. I don’t even think any of the lakes around here are frozen… Global Warming? Maybe Al Gore was right about something… For once! I think I might have to go check out that movie he has out. (Had to take a shot at Gore at the cost of me looking ignorant… but it was worth it.)
Snooze Button… WTF? This is some lazy ass shit. maybe I’m spoiled because I have never had a job where I had to be in at a certain time… but there are plenty of times I’ve had to set an alarm to make an appointment. Set it for the time you have to get up. What’s the point of setting it early and getting 30 mins + of crappy sleep… Ahem… MJ.
And now to the main feature.
My Lenovo ThinkPad X60 Tablet has arrived. Turned out not to be the Multi-Touch version, but I think I’m just going to rock out this one. When the unit is in tablet mode, there is no way in hell that you want the screen to accept input from anything other than the digi pen. Your hand wrests on the screen just as if you were writing on a piece of paper, so you can see where this might become a problem if your palm where to input. The only times I can see having input from your finger being used, is while the computer is: in notebook mode, there are times when messages and dialog boxes appear on the screen, and rather than reaching for the mouse, if you could clear them with a swift point to the screen… or if you have an application, such as gps software, and you have the device mounted in your car who wants to grab a stylus for some quick input? Overall I have to say the thing is bad ass… It’s going to take me a while to get used to it, and take advantage of all it has to offer, but already, I can see that this will be huge in my ongoing effort to be organized, streamlined, and connected. Time to load some software.
Tomorrow, my top secret toy gets in… so I’ll be sure to get a post in, and some pictures.
A good day/night to all!
