Chromebooks, Some Initial Thoughts
Sooooo, I might have taken $264.82 (which, as another attorney generously pointed out, is actually $304) and purchased a Samsung Chromebook. I blame the purchase on my taxes, or advertising. I’m not sure which. I would have normally purchased this from Amazon at $249, but I felt impulsive, so I took my money to Best Buy. I’ve… Continue Reading

Product Review: Anker ASTRO External battery

About 2 years ago I saw one of these Belkin Mini Surge Protectors while catching a flight from Oklahoma City to Sacramento. I thought this was a nifty little device then, but never really acted to purchase one. Then, Amazon recently sent me a gift certificate, and a discounted price, so I decided to… Continue Reading
From The Droid Lawyer’s Wish Book
Remember every year when the Sears Wishbook would come to the house? You and your siblings hovered around the catalog, mesmerized by all of the toys and gifts you hoped your parents would get you. The internet, Amazon, and even Google, removed some of the magic I felt, but, occasionally I get giddy about some “needed”… Continue Reading
