Want.

[riceboy]

Want.

Me too. That thing looks so cool

[Dusty Chalk]

I realize it's not a tube per se, but:

• I like the aesthetic;
  
• I like the functionality;
  
• I like the randomness;

Nope. As a computer, its underpowered overpriced. As a tablet, its underpowered underpriced. Basically, it doesn't seem good for much either way. A regular laptop should get you decent specs at that price.

Yeah the laptop I have now was around 550(refurb tho) but it is a bit annoying hauling its 15" self around. Thanks.
