Laptops: A blessing or a curse?
Chanpory Rith | Oct 8 2007
When I got my first laptop, I loved the exhilarating freedom of whipping it out anytime I "needed" it. No matter where I am, I could work on a project, balance a budget, or play a video game. Years later, despite its "convenience", I'm dangerously married to my laptop. It's with me virtually everywhere. On the bus, at work, at home, in bed. And yes, it even goes with me to the toilet--the perfect time for multi-tasking, right? According to my estimate, I spend twice as much time looking at an LCD screen than high-definition reality. My laptop, supposedly handy, is now just an easy excuse to work (or procrastinate) at any time, all the time. I need help, and it's time for an intervention. Do you have an unhealthy marriage with your laptop? Have you switched back to desktops? How have you coped? Please share. 43 Comments

 Baby proofingSubmitted by mmurray on October 12, 2007 - 2:37am.
OT I know but the recommended baby proofing method is to get down on your hands and knees and crawl around and see what you can get to. If you own your own house also get a central earth leakage switch fitted. Not sure what these are called in the US but they way they work is that when someone touches a live electrical point and the current starts to run across their body to earth it detects that current and switches the power off before the person dies.
