Man, I need to buy a backbone sometime. So there I am just living my life and being all independent and whatnot. One day Doug has to talk about how he’s bought some fancy pants little Netbook and he’s oh so happy about it and all that jazz. Bah! Then all of a sudden there’s monumental wallet rockslide and I’m out over $500. Where’d it go? Gone with the Wind.

I’ve been a PDA and smartphone geek for a while, but I’ve never stepped into the realm of the top-of-lap until just this morning when I bought myself a 6-cell MSI Wind from NCIX.com. Maybe it’s that charming way that Mr. Doug writes, or maybe it’s the desire to be able to write reviews and surf outside of my dark, windowless room. I didn’t care all that much about netbooks before, but now that I’m at school so often it’d be pretty neat to be able to have some ultra lightweight computer to do my bidding. Whatever it is, I now get to join the legion of laptoppaires on their march to mobile Computia.

Anyway, that’s all I have to say. I won’t do an un-boxing since Doug’s already done one, but maybe I can cook up a video tour or something when the lappy arrives.
