Peter Pan Would Be Disappointed...

I have done a very grown up thing. I have thoroughly researched laptops based on my specific needs and what each one could offer. And price. Because I am not rich. My main requirements are that it not be a dinosaur (not that I don't love my fossilized laptop), that I can write on it and it can hold all of my writing, and that I can watch movies on it (and hulu television, yes, it's so much better than regular tv) and listen to music. Yes, I know, that is what every laptop can do nowadays. I know. But it is all I really need mine to do. I am not a "gamer" and I don't feel the need to download everything I find online. I just need to be able to write and use this as my entertainment center. So I have chosen...

The Dell Inspiron 1545 in Jade Green. Obviously. It is the best quality and the best price for what I need. I have NEVER researched something so extensively - I generally get too bored after the first site and pick whatever seems sufficient. I am excited to get it (in a month once I finally have good paychecks again - stupid illness) and transfer Betwixt to a computer that will not try to eat it.

Also, I really, REALLY do not want to hear if you think I am making a horrible mistake. I understand how some might consider a choice of an electronic device as the equivalent to who you vote for (Barack Obama and, no, I don't feel bad about it) but you aren't going to change my mind, you are just going to annoy me. Also, I don't care how much you now hate me because I support Barack Obama. Toodles (ha, get it? Oh, the cleverness of me. I know Nikki will appreciate it!).
