Okay, it's as good as settled.
I'm gonna get myself an used notebook for my birthday. Guess I'll simply collect my b-day and holiday money (probably around 250 Euros) and see what configuration I can buy with that. At the moment, I'm hoping for something like 600/700 MHz, 256 MB RAM and hopefully more than 10 GB HDD. Won't need more than that. A Fujitsu Siemens one like mum's would be spiffy.
Speaking of mum's notebook, she got it today. As I expected, she wouldn't even have been able to turn it on if I hadn't been around =_= Anyway, I showed her how to scroll and click, how to open the DVD-drive and I even helped her with installing Microsoft Office. It's a nice machine overall, the display is reflecting as little TOO MUCH which seems to be a problem with many newer notebooks and PDAs. It's very silent and has a nice, silvery look. Oh well, I hope she can make at least SOME use of it, and that's just what I keep telling her. "Be good with it or otherwise, I shall swoop down on you and be VERY evil" >:D
Heart of steel
In your body there's the power
Ride on the wheel
Of this crazy way to be
Come on...
Blaster and masters you need to have some fun
Together forever you funky warriors
You faster and plaster you twisted on the run
Forever together you funky warriors
