macbook air looks beaaaaauuuutiful, but it's barely even a functioning laptop. it has one usb port and no optical drive. ok fine, i don't really know what that means but i'm led to believe it's basically a superskinny typewriter.
It uses the crazy power of wireless to hack other people's optical drives. Also the crazy power of bluetooth probably to connect to peripherals. who can say? It is like when the Imac had no floppy. Somehow, we all survived.
Typewriters are computers with *printers*. Sigh. lol. This is a machine to surf the web, chat with friends, and take notes: i.e. everything one does on the go, except watch movies, but you can pre-load those or youtube those, too, I guess. But it is not a destkop replacement: can't hook up your printer (unless it is on the network), scanner, rip dvd's, have 7 daisychained firewire drives (wireless drives ok), do video editing machine or anything like that.
But at my hands, it would be 2 broken pieces of laptop. sad, but true. Even though it looks so beautiful.
Scheiße, ich vergaß, was "belegen" bedeutet. Really odd which vocabulary sticks and which doesn't.
Oddly enough, I've told myself no new piercings until I find a home. I've always given myself arbitrary limits like that - "a piercing for each term of MIT I've survived" and so on. Ich will noch ein "Septumpiercing" ("Piercing" is apparently neuter). Ich würde aber wie eine Kuh aussehen...
Huh, that MIT term policy is a pretty good one! And one that I'm almost on schedule for as well! But, I don't think I'll be able to wait that long for more...
