Toshiba Mini NB205-N230 - With Windows 7 Starter OS: True Portability and Easy Connectivity

The Toshiba Mini NB205-N230 now comes with Windows 7 Starter OS.  Tech moves relentlessly ever onward.  Do you go with the new version of the Toshiba Mini NB205 with the Starter OS or do you stick with an XP model?

In either case you will have all the wonderful benefits from the Toshiba Mini NB200 series.  The spectacularly long battery life, up to 9 hrs. and the 10.1 inch screen.  Weighing a bit less than 3 lbs.,  you can just get up and go without being burdened by a bulky computer.  Plus there is a full sized keyboard and touchpad.

There’s a lot of hard drive space for a netbook: 250GB.   Enough to store lots of photos, and music.   It comes with 1GB of RAM, for dealing with current software needs.  Maximum RAM for this Toshiba netbook is 2GB.

Connecting to the net is not an issue, as Wi-Fi is integrated.  Three USB ports (one of which also charges cell phones), and a memory card reader (for Secure Digital, Secure Digital High Capacity and MultiMediaCard) connect to your peripherals.

There are some problems with the Windows 7 Starter Os.  It is not a complete OS.  Some find it puzzling, that they cannot personalize their computer.  Also there is no XP mode.  The maximum number of programs which can run at the same time is three.  However, there are exceptions to this rule, such as internet security programs.

On the other hand, starting and shutting down is faster.  As well as increased ease connecting to the internet.

Windows 7 Starter OS does have Microsoft Works for word processing and spreadsheet tasks.   No netbook can substitute (yet) for a desktop replacement laptop.   But with the full spectrum keyboard and full sized touchpad, you will be able to get those tasks done smoothly with minimum distractions.

If you are looking for an easy to carry laptop, with great staying power, plus the ability to comfortably use the keyboard/touchpad, the Toshiba Mini NB205-N230 netbook is for you.

Anthon Berg Liquor (Liqueur) Filled Chocolates 64 pc Best Buy

Let’s face it.  Candy often becomes one of those standby gifts.  You know the recipient enjoys chocolate.  You know it will get eaten, right?  You really don’t have to give it a lot of thought.

On the other hand,  after you give the same gift over many years, there’s no element of surprise.  And with that a reduced  sense of appreciation and anticipation.  Shouldn’t it be fun to give a gift as well as receive it?

These Anthon Berg Liquor Filled Chocolates solve that problem.  It’s the perfect balance between an ordinary,  ho-hum gift and one zinging with excitement.   And not just from the liqueur inside the bottled shaped candies.  The dark chocolate has complex flavors which linger on the tongue, after tastebuds are kick-started by quality name liqueurs.

Now just why would you give someone such a large box (64 ct) of chocolate?  Wouldn’t it seem to be just a little too much?  Not at all.  Your friend or family member will also be celebrating.  Bringing out this box of chocolates gives the occasion a festive touch.

In addition, after several weeks of partying and heavy dining, some guests will deny themselves one more rich dessert, yet still yearn for a little sweet sensation.  One (or two) of these chocolates will give a nice sweet finish to a meal.

Hmmm, now wouldn’t  this be a great gift for yourself?  You too deserve a nice Christmas treat for the holidays.  These European gourmet quality liquor filled chocolates will hit the spot.

It can be the thrill of the last minute hunt.  Trying to find the best deals may be our favorite sport.  Some of us just are gluttons for punishment.

There’s nothing like standing at 5:30 pm on Christmas eve getting those few last gifts.  The merchandise is out of order; you are hot, and achy.  There’s a child screaming in the background.  But it’s all worth it Christmas morning when they unwrap their gifts.   Hearing their laughter and seeing their laughter makes it all worthwhile.

Let’s start off  with a gift for children:  a toy but not just a toy, the EyeClops Mini Projector by Jakks.

And what girl has not dreamed of being a princess at one time or another.    Here’s a special princess, soon to come into her own:  African American Disney Princess, Princess Tiana with the “Just One Kiss Doll”

Are action figures just dolls for boys?  Don’t tell them that!  Here’s a new Bakugan Battle Monster, Maxus Dragonoid 7n1!

What about a little sweet little treat.  And a little different type of treat.  Here’s Anthon Berg liquor filled chocolates.  Enjoy these gourmet quality European liquor filled chocolates.
