Re: Acer to Hack a Touch Pro

so, i returned the Acer, it was TOO much compromise for me. since i used it as a desktop a lot with my KVM switch, the icons would bunch as it would be in its original form, and i couldnt live with that.

the long startups, the tinyness, hunching over when sitting at a table to use it. the bottons on the side of the trackpad.

i just couldnt live with the Acer Aspire One. so i returned it to fry's and those a holes over there charge 35 damn dollars to get XP to the welcome screen, i dont think that's very reasonable, especially since i removed all the added apps, had everything basically factory default other than my name being on the login(with no password)

i should've made those them work for that 35 and add viruses and make a bunch of accounts and partitioned the drive, BUT i didnt know they'd surprise me with that 35 so i didnt set them up ahead of time.

whatever though, i have the Acer sleeve and they didnt say it was missing from the box so whatever. 35 dollar netbook cover FTW!

im gonna get myself a macbook air, or just a macbook unibody and dualboot.
