We're both lying in bed with our laptops.

I'm excited because scientists have managed to create a logic gate out of 30 atoms.
Julie is excited because What Katie Did are having a sale on lingerie/corsets from the 5th.

I'm excited about both of those things. I wonder what that makes me? Pluto? (Not really a planet, dude.)

To be fair, I'm more excited about WKD...

And, obviously, the Acer Aspire One - which I've heard good things about.

A friend of mine is interested in getting a netbook soon, so any comments on it will be gratefully received :->

IT ARE SO SHINY AND AWESOME AND AWESOME AND SHINY! Major problem I have noticed so far: it's a bit excessively locked down. It comes with FF2 and I am going to have to hack it to get it to upgrade to FF3.

stephen installed ubuntu on his.

and clearly the next logical step to the original conversation is a nano-scale corset.
