Man I hate laptops.... - GoFuckYourself.com

NickPapageorgio · 07-02-2005, 03:41 PM

Up in Erie PA for the 4th holiday. Using my friends laptop sucks ass.

Anyone really like these over conventional PCs? I mean, they are convenient but just...I dunno...uncomfy.

I hate laptop keyboards.. I can't type for shit on them.

Donny · 07-02-2005, 03:46 PM

I use my laptop more than anything. I have a PowerBook G4. Nice nice computer.

Right now I'm typing on it from the comfort of the throne room. I love wireless access and portable computers: even at times like these I can be productive. No more dragging the newpaper into the bathroom.

I use my laptop much more than my desktop, and I truly love it. Just takes some getting used to.

If you have ever had any formal typing training they are an absolute pain in the ass to use - especially if it's got one of those spiggots, that takes the place of the mouse, right in the middle of the keys.

I love my laptop....Hated Erie, PA. was there about 6 years or so ago

Do they still make laptops with those things? Haven't seen one in a looong time (and yes, I agree they were annoying).

My laptop is my main computer now and has been for over a year. I love it! I don't have to move stuff around when I leave the house and I can work outside

BigBen · 07-02-2005, 03:52 PM

I pretty much use a laptop for everything. I prefer the keyboard over a regular keyboard and it's nice having wireless around the office and house.

Tala · 07-02-2005, 03:53 PM

One day I too will have a Mac.

woj · 07-02-2005, 03:54 PM

laptops are great once you get used to them, now a days I do most of my work from a laptop...

aico · 07-02-2005, 03:54 PM

I use my G4 Powerbook with wireless mouse, I can't stand trackpads, but the keyboard on the G4 isn't as bad as some other Desktops I've used.

Try pluging a mouse in, it will relieve a lot of the frustration.

I guess that just shows how old my laptop is - I keep telling the boss it's time I got an upgrade - but I only use it for word processing these days and even though I've poured a glass of port into the keyboard it still works fine - except for that damn spiggot.

cosis · 07-02-2005, 04:19 PM

I'm digging it up here. We're thinking about buying a house. Nice fresh air, great prices, relaxing landscape, clean lake...

...I think we may just do it.

Not quite Erie...it's like 30 miles south...little town Meadville.

Downtime · 07-02-2005, 05:11 PM

Not having a number pad is a pain.

SeniorX · 07-05-2005, 04:13 AM

the laptop keyboard seems weird at the beginning, but when you get used to it, you'll understand that actually the PC keyboard is weird and uncomfy.

Corleone · 07-05-2005, 04:32 AM

I've one but I'm never using it

james_hunk · 07-06-2005, 01:51 AM
