Also, we have a lot of weird/mismatched/half-dead hardware. This is probably not news.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

So what makes it a netbook? Size?

Any recommendations on digital picture frames in the $50-$70 price range? Amazon has a lot on sale right now, from Opteka, Pandigital, Coby, and Kodak.

So what makes it a netbook?
There is another distinction. A netbook can get a special OEM price for Windows if it meets certain hardware restrictions, which is why so many netbooks are restricted to 1GB of memory. There are some that don't use the special pricing so they can have more capability, but they are the bigger and more expensive netbooks, typically with 11" or 12" screens.

I'm thinking about getting a GPS system. I need something that can give me a speed display all the time even when I'm not programming in a destination (maybe that's all of them, I don't know). I'm also not wanting to spend a lot. Any recommendations?

I just got a Garmin nuvi 260 W on Amazon for $120 for mr. flea's birthday. We like it. It does display speed, I think even when you don't have a destination in mind.

Thanks, and thanks to dcp too. I'm trying to decide now between a nuvi 205W ($100), a nuvi 1300 ($130), a nuvi 265WT ($160), or a nuvi 780 ($180). I have a premature Christmas gift certificate, so there has to be a big difference in price to buy elsewhere. I'm leaning toward the 205w after some quick investigation.
