The Laptop that Blogging Bought

I have written about the new camera that blogging bought in my other blog.

One of the first things that I got from the money I earned by writing reviews is to buy a laptop. Nothing fancy, it was not even new though it was barely used.

It was hubby’s decision to get this laptop rather than get a new one, which his former college classmate was selling because she was planning to get a newer and more compact one. He is my tech guru.

When I have free schedule at my workplace, I bring it with me so that I can use it to write blog posts, reports and I even use it with my students. It is also great for watching DVD :)

I even got a backpack for the laptop for easier handling. It is quite heavy though since we have to walk from my workplace to meet hubby in the parking space that we prefer before we go home. I haven’t been bringing this to work as of late because of the weather.

In the backpack I have other things that I use for the laptop. Charger, mouse, my Nokia pc suite cable, the kids music player, my smaller digicam and even sometimes the digicam’s usb cable, if I have to take pictures of my children or my students in action. I call these my “tools of the trade”. Whatever.

I am even thinking of getting an HDMI cable to use for the huge wall-mounted plasma tv in my work place. We can even use it at at home for other applications :D

    I love your “tools of the trade”, you techie mommy you. Hehe! My laptop’s also a Toshiba, and I’ve had it for nearly two years now. It has never failed me. =)

    I have an HP D8000 Desktop replacement. It went wack on me a just a few months ago because we used it for our research paper and my classmates kept on plugging their virus ridden USBs into it. :( But it’s still up and running!

    “Tools of the trade” yes, we need these things to be able to go about our blogging business, kinareer eh :D

    Frankly, I didn’t know I would go this far with blogging, thought I would last less than a year but it is good so I will still keep up with it.

    Thanks :)
