It's not a cyberdeck unless I have trodes and a halo, chummer. But some kind of netbook would be great.

I had an Asus Eee PC and I fuckin' loved it. Is there anyone still making a functional laptop in that form factor anymore?

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 16 hours ago

I don't know, but if you find one, let me know. Because if Asus made a new one under their ROG branding, I think I'd be willing to pay the extra cost.
