Now for something less related to animation: I have a new toy :)
Since Spring is approaching and I don't want to be working inside all the time, I decided I need a mobile device. However I didn't want to get a big and expensive laptop, but rather something I can type on in the park, surf the web and watch movies on a train-ride.
So I decided on a little 10inch eeePC netbook from Asus, the newly released 1000HE. So far I'm really happy with it, it comes with Windows XP and after installing some of my favourite tools and upgrading to 2 Gigs of RAM it works perfectly for my needs.
It has a lot of convenient features such as deactivating w-lan and bluetooth with the click of a button, or different power saving modes. It also has a multi-touch trackpad and a matte screen. Probably the best thing about it is that the batterie lasts for up to 10 hours, I guess for typical use it's between 7 and 9 hours.
Now I could have my AM Q&A-sessions in the park :)
Ok, just thought I'd share some "nerd stuff"...
Happy Easter everbody!!

Did you try installing Maya on it?
ReplyDeleteI have the first generation Asus eeepc (4G) with linux on it and would not want to try that with mine, but I was thinking of getting one for photoshop. Do you think it will do that?
