Luscious’ 12 Ways to Get More out of a Notebook

One of our most prolific readers is Leslie, AKA Luscious. He always has good comments to share with us. What you may not know is that he has a blog where he posts his thoughts on mobile tech — notebooks in particular. He’s written a good post that outlines 12 ways to get the most use out of any notebook. Many of them are simply common sense but they are all good to remember. Hey, he even mentions the MiFi, so of course I like them. Check out his post and let him know what you think.

Whichever one of these is supposed to be the link its not working. Just make the link obvious instead of trying to make us read one of your old articles.
The link works for me, every time. And we NEVER try to make you read our old stuff, just refer to it if someone is interested. Saves a search.
dont know why I always get this message from Google every time I try to access his site:
We’re sorry…

Thanks James, you guys rock!
Last Thursday Twitter, Facebook and Google was hit by cyber attacks using DDoS and thousands of virus infected PCs were simultaneously visiting the sites overwhelming the websites and bringing them down.
That was the reason we got that message from Google yesterday.

My dream is to have a 10″ notebook with 4GB Ram and at least 2Ghz core 2 Duo with built in DVD R/W
and 9 hours of Battery, 500GB 7200 HDD, dedicated good Graphic capability and built in 3G broadband.
I will carry this in a very small case having my “Think Outside” bluetooth mouse and keyboard
and I am ready to pay for it!
I was going to post this on LGP site but unfortunately it doesn’t allow me to paste and I was not willing to type these again specially on the Vilv S5 :)
