I have one of these as well... I bought it over a year ago and it stays in my backpack or in my vehicle .. essentially I have computer access 24/7.

I bought a 12' usb cable ( $20 ) and a USB wifi adapter, I zip tie the adapted to the top of my work truck and am able to pull in unsecured wifi from over 1/2 mile off.

The thing is awesome .. tough .. and is one of the best electronic buys I've ever made for under $350.

No .. tard .. you are not getting mine.

Check out CNET's review.

The fag reviewing it kinda pisses me off .. as well as most of the review comments.

Its a goddamn NET book .. note a LAPTOP.

Its feature focus is a robust and capable NET/SURF experience and it does that exceedingly well.

It does NOT play graphically challenging games. It does NOT like to have 30 windows open at the same time nor does it respond well to NASA math calculations.


If you want a capable device that has a real keyboard .. with a real screen .. that can do virtually everything your basic entertainment laptop does .. but can ALSO fit in a cargo pocket and is durable enough to tote around all damn day .. everyday ... then this is the one for you.


As I said .. its a goddamn NET book. And it smokes the hell out of the pussy ass IPAD for usage ability and standard function surfing. .. plus its got 3 USB ports .. .stupid ass fucking Apple and their useless pussy pad has ZERO. ( my opinion. )

[Saucy]

Cool. I will be donating now.

[CrAnIuM]

Out of fairness ...

One is able to obtain a brand new Aspire of this model type for approximately $ 280 - $350.

By all means enter the raffle .. just don't be a retard about it.

[CrAnIuM]

Two contestants already .. yaaa !

Two contestants already .. yaaa !

I'd spend more but I figure Josie's gonna win anyway. But it was worth the donation for being able to pop on and off her the past few years. I just wish there were more boobs.

[Josie]

Gahhhh.. =/

Yes. I will win.

I have faith.

umanawww lobbahobba dingja vwoooo

This raffle ends in 10 days.

This is also the end of the line for the Raffles. My out of pocket costs for the forum and related stuff ( to include the raffle ) have far exceeded what I have set as my monthly spending limit for this "hobby".

Regardless of the amount of tickets that get sold over the next ten days this WILL be the last Raffle.

Thanks but I'm a bit pissed at this situation and have removed the donate box.

I'll pull a number tonight and one of the four that entered will get the netbook. .... practically for free.


This raffle is closed.

[SlimSkeeter]

Well it was fun while it lasted. Too bad the rest of the mooks here didn't wanna join in and play. It was a great idea and I enjoyed every raffle I was in. Congrats in advance to the final Swollen Cranium Raffle Winner.



P.S. if it is me my address has changed.

[Titty]

It was obvious by past raffles that participation would be slim for such contests. I wouldn't take it as a personal slight.

Not everyone enjoys gambling. I, for one, do not often part with money without guaranteed goods or services in exchange. If it makes me a tightwad or spoilsport, so be it. I certainly don't begrudge others for what they do with their disposable income; as I do not expect them to do so with mine.

[Wenis]

Oh shit. I think I missed out on the best raffle in the whole world ever.
The odds to win are one in four. If the laptop is worth $350 (or there abouts), then each ticket is worth like... $85 ish. $85 for $2.

It's like the lottery but the wrong way round.
Feel bad for you cranium... you're incredibly good natured to not say "fuck you all" and return the laptop to the shop.

[Josie]

nooooooo understand and all but DAMN!
