Unwise purchase on the horizon

So you know, after I officially make my decision to move to another city (without finding a job first, although, srsly, how often does that happen beforehand?), add a lovely rent check to my bills, on top of moving costs, Christmas on the distant horizon, and [livejournal.com profile] kymbie's visit in December... you would think it would be easy to resist temptation to buy things I don't need.

But I seriously want.

And because it makes me laugh:





Meanwhile, I do have thoughts on "Whispers"... but I'm attempting to form them into a 'video review'. I know, I'm scared too.

I've gone from wanting an EeePC, to a HP MiniNote, to an Acer Aspire One, back to the MiniNote, then to the MSI Wind, and have landed on this itsy bitsy Dell as my holy grail of netbooks!
I'm in serious lust with the Aspire One - you can get the most basic version for around £200. We get a slightly different version of the Mini to you guys, and no choices, but at £300, it's more expensive for us than the equivalent One (1GB RAM, 120GB hard disk, Linpuslite £250). The only way I'm holding off is promising to buy myself one in the sales. But *flails* WANT!!!!

ETA: OH GOOD GRIEF! I have one! *flails* how spooky is that?

Video review? My mind is boggling already ;)

OMG! I have insane amounts of jealousy and euphoria for you at the same time! Very spooky, but very cool! I nearly snatched up an Aspire One about a month ago when they hit shelves here in the States, but decided to hang on for the Dell edition to compare. And dude, those specs? Seriously awesome! Congrats! :D

It keeps EVOLVING (and then devolving!) I swear I'll finish it eventually! XD
