not easily, though.
And Especially not easy if you want to dual boot it.
Last time I was at the Doc, my data all got entered by a clerk, then re-entered by a nurse, then re-entered by the Doctor. They all seemed to think it was all perfectly normal, redundancy for accuracy kinda thing. It drove me nuts.
I thought of this too. My industry uses a lot of computer controllers that are self-contained boxes triggering a few dozen relays, everything is on the front panel of the controller. I play with several of these every day, but I finally decided anything in this genera (and my phone as well) was a keypad. For "Keyboard" I'm going with 1 for my laptop.
There's a couple of other computers in the house, but I don't use them on any regular basis.
The "World Series" was originally sponsored by the "World" Newspaper, or magazine or some such. Name was corporate sponsor and just never got changed.
I was going to say the same - getting a laptop. Lenovo Thinkpad T61. (Which I made better by installing Kubuntu on)
I maxed out the RAM and got the discrete video card of course, but just having it all together, and able to put it in a bag and take it to my folks or the beach or wherever is the awesome.
Still runs apache and plays all the games I want it to as well.
You mean like the one they built in Oak Ridge in the 60s?

I disagree. I have a GREAT Microsoft mouse. In fact, I consider it to be much more valuable than the several pieces of their software I had to delete off my hard drive when I originally bought my computers.
They also didn't include a map. I mean, c'mon, if you're talking about a 10 freaking mile long man-made hole in the ground isn't a map showing it's route a pretty damned obvious thing to think that a reader would want to see?
