I'm posting in bed on my new Toshiba laptop - ask me anything

[LynneSin]

:woohoo:

[Lex]

1. Where'd you buy it from?

The computer, not the bed.

[LynneSin]

5. Would you believe Staples

I really wanted a Sony but I stopped by Staples for something else and they had this one on the clearance for a great price (it was the floor model) PLUS I got an extra 15% off because the up arrow key is missing. (For $11 I got a replacement one which still saved me plenty of money from the missing key)

The bed is my original bedroom suit my family got me when I was a kid (with a grownup full size bed). The mattress is about 8 years old and a firm Serta I got from Sleep-eze. And the sheets are from Bed, Bath & Beyond. The sheets are actually made of bamboo fiber and are the softest things you could ever imagine. They are sea foam in color. I also got the comforter at the same time which is a moss green and looks like its suede.

I love my bed

2. Careful. I might try to disguise myself as a Toshiba laptop.

:evilgrin:

[LynneSin]

8. Settle Beavis

:eyes:

[KamaAina]

10. I am not Beavis, dammit, I'm Butt-head!

Butt-head is way smarter than Beavis. Hehehehehehehe!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. My dear LynneSin!

Sounds cool!

Why did you buy a Toshiba?

I bought a Lenovo, and am very happy with it!

[LynneSin]

6. I've always had IBMs which is Lenovo...

but they got rid of the touch point.

The Toshiba is a reliable model and if you check the buyblue website - they don't donate money to any political candidates.

4. Which model?

I have a Satellite A100 and love it.

[LynneSin]

7. Mine is the A105 - do you have the really great screen with it?

My wallpaper is this Led Zeppelin photo of the band that has a faint image of the bandmembers imposed over top of it. To see it on the Toshiba screen is so cool because it looks almost 3D


This is my desktop

[achtung_circus]

13. The screen is to die for.

My wallpaper changes on an ongoing basis, it's currently this:

[LynneSin]

14. This is mine - and the layering of the picture looks amazing with the Toshiba Screen

[achtung_circus]

25. OOOhhhhhhhh

I just tried it. I told you I rotate wallpaper. It looks WOW.

[LynneSin]

28. I rotate too - but just to other LZ pictures

I'm posting in the dark and when I move the screen around it looks so neat

[texanwitch]

9. Congrats on your new laptop.

:headbang:

[LynneSin]

15. No questions? You get a free question

:D

[texanwitch]

18. How big is your RAM.

My laptop needs more, I need to upgrade.

[LynneSin]

20. This model only has 500mg but I'll update it soon

Memory was not on sale at Staples. I can upgrade this to 2g if I want too

[texanwitch]

21. That is what I want.

I have some software I can't run without at least 1g.

I want 2g if I can get it.

[LynneSin]

22. I still have my desk top with 1g on it

but I can't post threads like "I'm posting on DU from bed" on my Sony desktop

[texanwitch]

23. I have a lot of photo's to edit and video tape to download.

I need the extra RAM.

[Nicole]

11. What are you wearing?

Someone had to ask. :rofl:

No offense to your laptop but your bed sounds more interesting. :)

[LynneSin]

16. I'm wearing some jammies my mom got me for xmas

It's a light green nightshirt with little white cats embroidered all over it.

I love the color green

[Nicole]

26. Sounds cute.

I love green & cats too. :hi:

[Zywiec]

24. Nicole was reading my mind!

[Nicole]

27. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[lizziegrace]

12. LynneSin!!

I have to tell you about the televised PBS Auction this week. We found some cowbells and when things got too quiet, someone yelled "we need more cowbell!!"

It became our mantra...

;)

Congrats on your new laptop. :woohoo:

[LynneSin]

17. You can't see my cowbell right now

:cry:

[lizziegrace]

19. I know...

It *will* be back. I just know it. ;)

:hug:

[Sanity Claws]

29. Do your jammies match your laptop?

Now that's an idea -- matching jammies and laptop cover.

[LynneSin]

30. No but my jammies did match my sheets & comforter

all in shades of Green

[Midlodemocrat]

31. What thread count are your sheets?

and what color are they?

Very important stuff.

[LynneSin]

32. Here's the odd thing - the thread count is only 250....

..but because the sheets are made of this bamboo fiber instead of normal sheet-type materials they are uber-soft. Normally I won't let anything less than 400 on my bed because it feels like fricking sandpaper on me, but if you have to try these sheets. Oh, and bamboo fiber is 100% hypoallergenic too.

The sheets are seafoam green which go lovely with the moss green comforter, which has a suede look & feel to it.
