    What type of laptop do you recommend

    I know very little about tablets. Would also like to know more about them. A lot of great info here. Someone mentioned HP earlier. I bought one their system once and never again. Needed a power switch and they charged me for an entire front panel. After a blackout occurred and took out the...

    What type of laptop do you recommend

    Right now I'm using an Aspire One Netbook upgraded to 2G. Bought a cheap cig lighter plugin for the aux battery. I think it uses 10W or so, not bad. But I need more power for some things so I've been looking into Asus notebooks. Something in-between a ultrabook and i3. I really like win 7 but...

    Where To Park, Recommendations

    IT contract jobs mostly at their place. Skype for stay-at-home cool but depending on wifi hot spots not reliable. I'd need some type of sat internet hookup, which was my next question to this group. As far as staying on their site; this never crossed my mind until you mentioned it. Thanks...

    Where To Park, Recommendations

    Hello to all on this forum: The following concern might sound insignificant to many but I'm new to anything resembling living on the road without hotel/motel. My only concern--where to park. This remains my only reservation about hitting the road full time. I'm middle-aged and I can't drive...
