All good things must pass and my faithful EEE has been put out to pasture. It lived a chequered career taking over as my predominant computer after a large four computer stable. It travelled through out Asia saving me from accommodation touts on the Mekong and returned home to catalogue my fruitless unemployment and subsequent trip to Europe.

Unfortunately it developed a drinking problem in Antibes and its keyboard met its match in a sickly concoction of coke and loud music. This led to a mental illness and frequent focusing problems as its F11 key developed a split personality.

Thankfully my benefactor and the person who completes me arrived this weekend to help me purchase a new computer.

Good bye EEE hello HP.
