Hindsight is a wonderful thing. In this particular case, technology related.
My previous laptop was unfortunately hit by a virus that managed to get through anti virus, security, virus software, everything. Said laptop being in the technological equivalent of being in a coma, I was left without technology.
One can not simply go without technology for more than one week without going completely insane. It is folly.
The problem was that at the time, and now if it comes down to it, I was short on cash. I needed a replacement, sooner rather than later and I couldn't pay too much for it. My choice in the end was a Samsung N145 Plus Netbook.
The netbook has served me well and is fine for what I need it for. Browsing the internet, social networking, blogging and research all work well with a netbook. Herein though lies the problem.
A few months ago I decided to start a degree. Whilst my netbook is fine for browsing and playing around, I doubt that it has the capacity to complete with a fully functioning laptop. The smallest of the problems being the lack of size in the screen and keyboard.
The only solutions I have come up with thus far, being unable to fund a new laptop, are buying an external hard drive to extend the space and getting an external keyboard to help with the typing. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but for now, I guess I have to work with what I have.
If anyone who happens to read this post has any ideas into how I can increase the capacity of my netbook, or indeed has a magic spell to increase the size of the screen, I'm all ears. In the meantime, entering every laptop competition I can find!!
