Question for the lentils out there: What makes and models of laptops are good these days? Traditionally, you could just get an IBM ThinkPad if you were willing and able to pay extra for quality, but judging by reviews, they aren't as consistent as they used to be. A 'nice' laptop has to get a lot of things right: fast internals, sturdy case, quality keyboard, excellent battery life, and good heat management, to name a few. Are there any manufacturers that sell machines worth buying anymore, or do you have to compromise?

    Oh come on, how does she become a mother if she won't get nude. Sure it's possible, but not really convenient.

    Don't be a prude. Besides, having a letter and a picture anywhere on the same hard drive is essentially the same as having it in the same folder considering how trivial it is to search an entire drive with simple tools.

    "Besides, having a letter and a picture anywhere on the same hard drive is essentially the same as having it in the same folder considering how trivial it is to search an entire drive with simple tools."

    Huh. Until now it has never occurred to me to search for .doc files while rummaging through somebody's computer looking for porn.
