I've been thinking of retiring this old Dell desktop for a netbook.
90% of the stuff I do on the Dell could be done on a net book.

I've been using a little tablet to check my mail, the weather & headlines, in the mornings.
If nothing much is going on, I just leave the old Dell off a little longer.

I don't like typing into the tablet, it's just too slow and awkward.
So, I think a cool running netbook would be the ticket.
I could leave it on 24-7, and let the power save modes keep it from
going down for the count..
Then, I could walk by, press on the pad and see my house monitor app..
