can I use my laptop in the beach? - GoFuckYourself.com

sigurman · 02-04-2006, 11:50 AM

I am going to a nice beach hotel and would like to be carrying my laptop to the beach but not exposing it to the sun.
Will the "sea air" damage the components of the laptop?
thanks!

Unless you have a ruggedized laptop that would NOT be a good idea.

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 02-04-2006, 11:53 AM

sand and sea salt..bad idea..very bad idea.

hmmwv · 02-04-2006, 11:58 AM

and you can´t really see much, as the sun is reflecting on the screen. at least that´s the case with mine when i go outside...

Its the first time I ever heard that term "ruggedized". Its too late to buy one, already baught my fujitsu-siemens

The problem is I also live near the beach, a ruggedized laptop it would be very helpful to me...
thanks for the help!

jacked · 02-04-2006, 11:59 AM

not a good idea at all... the sand alone would destroy it

Adultlexicon · 02-04-2006, 12:01 PM

how do you get in the beach ?

pornguy · 02-04-2006, 12:02 PM

Nope not a good idea at all. I live 2 blocks from the beach, and the rust here is amazing beacuse of the salty air.

keep it inside!

dissipate · 02-04-2006, 12:49 PM

sand + laptop = bad

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 02-04-2006, 01:08 PM

Why take a lap top to the beach anyhows.. The beach is too relaxing for work..take a camera instead

divinity · 02-04-2006, 01:24 PM

if you're on vacation, leave the laptop in the hotel room.

ffmihai · 02-04-2006, 02:05 PM

work in the hotel room yo!

Sosa · 02-04-2006, 02:28 PM

yeah, just sit your laptop on the fucking sand or let sand/water get blown on it. Nothing will happen!

OzMan · 02-04-2006, 02:30 PM

Assuming you have travel insurance, bring your laptop to the beach and then leave it on your towel and go for a swim/walk for an hour. It will be stolen, then with your claim money you can buy a water/sand/drop/salt/acid/lava proof one for the next trip.

tgpmakers · 02-04-2006, 02:32 PM

Ya man I live on a boat and trust me laptops on the beach will not be a good idea BUT if you want to do it for experience go and do it hahahahahaha

p.s. backup first though

Morgan · 02-04-2006, 02:33 PM

dont put it in the water.

even if you're as safe as possible with it, you still wont be able to see it due to the sun.

SmokeyTheBear · 02-04-2006, 03:01 PM

buncha pussies in here

heh

I take my laptop down to the beach all the time, its a tad hard to see when its sunny , i suggest a sun shade, but tother than that you shoud be ok just watch the sand and water

Cory W · 02-04-2006, 03:03 PM

You can take it in the water, most of them will float.

adonthenet · 02-04-2006, 03:06 PM

You actually cant be without your laptop for cuple hours?!
save it inside.. and SAVE your laptop

fuzebox · 02-04-2006, 03:10 PM

Sand has a habit of getting in everything...

Whenever I try to work on a patio or pool deck the sun glare makes it impossible anyway.

aico · 02-04-2006, 03:11 PM

From what I've seen, as long as you are drinking some Coronas, nothing bad can happen.
