Well I finally got an EeePC, after leaving my old job (hooray!) I no longer had a laptop to use on the road, except for our old HP that we lovingly named “Fatty”. Since I am doing computer service work for people, having a laptop with me is a huge time saver and convenience. I didn’t want to spend more money on a laptop than I would be able to quickly recover so I thought an EeePC would be perfect. I spent lots of time on my favorite online store (it might be newegg…) looking at all of the netbooks and user reviews and decided on the EeePC 1000HE.

Hey I just wanted to give everyone a heads up about bogus e-card emails. I have been receiving emails lately that say “You’ve received a greeting postcard from a school-mate!” or “You’ve received a greeting postcard from a friend!” in the subject line. Do not click on the link in these emails! I know some of them say Hallmark.Com, but if you look at the link it will have an IP address like this one http://222.119.120.109/ or similar number. These are bogus and should just be deleted from your email! If you get a real e-card it will say who it came from and most likely be from Yahooo or similar company.
