and now for something completely different: slight praise.

(1st world problems ahead, apologies.)

i got a used samsung chromebook pro at a great price. it is sort of amazing. unfortunately it is the older version w/out the backlit keyboard, but even so, it is impressive. when i use the stylus to do some basic drawing stuff, it doesn't suck the way all my 'mobile' devices did. i recently spent an extra zero more cash (even with a good discount on it) for a newer ipad and a knockoff 3rd party pencil. sure, the ipad drawing experience is now great, but for like 5x less this chromebook is the bees' knees. or is it the bee's knees? no idea.
