The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Yay, new pc...

I'm lookin' forward to it. this one'll be a really small IBM thinkpad, but the groovy thing about it is the tablet feature. The display pivots all the way around and lays down so you can use it as a tablet, with a touch screen. I've played around with some of the other tablets and I'm really sold on the idea.

Yeah, my coworker has one. He uses it in class to read comics instead of paying attention. It's definitely cool.

Cool... izzit workin' out OK? Any hardware worries to speak of yet? The one thing I'm worried about is the rotating hinge for the display. I wonder if it is heavy duty enough to last for a couple of years.

No, and he's had it for two years, I think. He loves it.
