I realize I have been writing less and less because my next-to-worthless of a laptop, the refurbished Gateway from hell, has been acting up, and then finally a few days ago...it died.
I wasn't totally sad to be honest. It was a beast of a thing. It weighed too much and I had to lug it around to coffee shops when I didn't have wi-fi. It also gave me an excuse to put the search out for a new writing companion.
After weeks and weeks of research, I finally bit the bullet and bought a Lenovo Ideapad 15.6 Z585. I pick her up next week at Best Buy. I feel like I am going to the hospital to bring home a newborn.
From the photos, I see that it will be an adjustment getting used to the keyboard--let's hope she's a keeper.
R.I.P. Gateway. You were an okay starter machine, but it's time to move on.
