Sometimes So Surprised
I gave myself two presents for christmas. Both of those were computers and both had to be ordered from online companies abroad.
So today my father called me and said that the postal service had left a package to him but that it was addressed to me. I assumed that it would be a tiny envelope with the Raspberry Pi Zero W that had less of a journey getting here. The small device will be used to teach basic linux administration and will be connected through wifi so finding a place for it will not be a problem.
But the postage bag was quite a bit bigger. I didn't expect to get the laptop on this side of the new year but apparently I – as well as the transport company – was wrong. It is here already, the Pinebook Pro by PINE64.
I will explore the machine and get back to you later. ...but two quick things before I get back to the celebrations here.
- The keyboard feels really good. Surprisingly good. Awesome.
- The construction feels sturdy and yet it is so light. Will fit nicely into my backpack.
