Spike ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was thinking of getting the glow gaff if it works (maybe it wouldn't need staples to stay down, and it would lay flatter)
Oh yes, the joy of the staples. The stuff is basically just a huge pain in the ass. But, if keeps actors from stepping off the stage in the dark, so I suppose it's a necessity. Although there are some I would be happy to lose.
Sorry, Amy, all my laptops these days are Dell.
Mine is Compaq -- I basically only buy on price.
Boo! I decided I could justify spending the money on an NYC haircut, and my stylist is all booked! I wonder if she would squeeze me in anyway.
Any thoughts on Toshiba laptops?
I've only had Toshiba latops, using each for 5+ years.
The only reason I bought new ones was that I broke the screen on the first one and had to upgrade the second to be able to use iTunes.
This one has been fine except it has a tendency to overheat and eventually shut down when overworked (playing CDs/DVDs, downloading into iTunes, etc.) Which usually means I've been on the computer too long anyway, so I live with it.

Study: Asus, Toshiba Make Most Reliable Laptops
We have a Toshiba laptop and it's been trouble-free for the last 2 1/2 years.
Thanks! A guy who works tech squad at Best Buy was selling me on an Asus, but I can't find any reviews online. And I found a Toshiba with the exact specs, so.
My poor, overworked, reconditioned Thinkpad is about to get handed down to the kids, I think.
I've had several Toshiba laptops and had great performance from them.

And crew. Don't forget crew. Why no, I didn't break my ankle falling off a stage. Nope. We won't mention the hairline fractured skull from a falling barndoor. Don't think glow tape would have prevented that one.
I love my Asus, though it's a netbook, not a full-fledged laptop.
