So there I was; upstairs huddled in front of my warm, throbbing HP Pavilion zd8000 laptop, really getting into a keen contest of words between Mahndisa of Mahndisa’s Thoughts and the interminable Intellectual Insurgent, and boy was it fun — until I finally realized: the digital world is nice, but I do my best reading when I hold something in my hand.

Are you the same way? I, for whatever moonbat reason, can proofread and concentrate on information most efficiently from a hard copy. Coupled with the inherent long, thin, vertical nature of blogs, I found myself having to go up and down, up and down, trying my best to compare and contrast the various statements they made. I got-a so confoosed. . .

My big desktop confuser is temporarily down pending federal funding for a flatscreen half as decent as the one on this laptop (the zd8000 has the sharpest, clearest, most detailed screen I’ve ever seen — anywhere — on anything — ever).

Despite that, though my laptop (yeah, right, try placing this monstrous bastard on your lap and see if you ever have decent quadriceps muscles again) has a 17″ widescreen, in an ideal world I find I’d like to have about three or four separate monitors so I can put various posts and comments up on each.

Lacking this brain glazingly-expensive (though, for me, ideal) solution, I’ll bring the internet up in 3, 4 or 5 separate windows and toggle between them. And in truth, I never really print out hard copies because it’s simply not practical — there’s so much information I read and reference.

I guess I just process information this way.

How about you?
