When I was sixteen, my folks bought the second car with me in mind. That is, they let me choose it and even how to decorate it.

It was a beautiful blue Camaro (kinda like a cross between turquoise and a blue-raspberry popsicle) with a white top.

I got pink flower decals and put on the sides of it and had love-beads dangling from the mirror.

My tail-lights not only showed up as tail-lights but, also, in the eyes of a white poodle whom I named Pierre who looked out my back window from his comfortable place on the back window ledge. A tiny chocolate dachaund who nodded his head in time to the motion of the car and whom I named Abel relaxed close to Pierre.

This was the car my dad drove to work (and I had it in the evening)--and this made him really get a lot of teasing about his "hippie car."

Anyway, there were some boys at school who asked me a lot of technical questions about the car, and I told them that I had no idea--that I simply inserted and turned the key and shifted it into gear!

I don't think that you really need to tell everything there is to know about this computer, because--as with my Camaro--the technical part obviously isn't that important to you.

Since you were able to tell how much enjoyment you and your son have gotten out of it--along with telling a few things you like about it--I gave you a VH.

However, it would make an even more interesting review if you would go into detail a little more--such as telling some of the favorite things you and your son use this computer for and why you chose this particular one over another type!

Warmly,
AJ :o)

but you don't really tell me anything about the computer. If I were in the market for this machine I'd want to know about the specs - how much memory does it come with? How big is the hard drive? Are the keyboard and mouse it comes with easy to use? How many bays and connectors of various types does it have? etc.
