Thinkpad

We got a new toy at work. Of course, it’s a darn sight heavier than the old machine, but in this case, BIG (or bigger to be more precise, compared to a laptop it isn’t really big) is beautiful!

The screen swivels round at 180° and it even has a fingerprint recognition sensor thingy! (This is, for those more au fait with computer terminology, an integrated fingerprint reader.)
Just stroke a finger over the sensor and the computer starts up. You don’t even have to enter a password; it allows you to bypasses most security. Quite the time saver!

I never knew I could get so excited about a machine. This just goes to show, wonders will never cease ;-)
