For various tedious reasons, most of which relate to my irritating habit of fainting like a fey fiction heroine when it gets the slightest bit warm, I need to reduce the amount of stuff I carry to university. Accordingly I have purloined a netbook to see if that make things easier.
And my verdict after one day? Yes. Yes it does. It's not a perfect solution the battery life is dire and the power cable weighs as much as the netbook. However, being able to take notes on slides without killing a whole forest. Actually being Aw to work in the library without having to lurk around like some kind of stalker until a computer is free. Awesome.
Also awesome, and this ruins any cool nerd kid credentials I might have had, Microsoft OneNote. I know, I know liking teh evul windoze is not on. But. seriously that thing fucking rocks. No it doesn't make up for the awfulness that is publisher, nor for the annoying but ubiquitous Excel, but damn this is actually good. I can have all my stuff for each module together and well I like...
Now all I need is to win the lottery (which is unlikely because I don't play) and heye one of those write on tablet pc dooberries.
