     Shopping for a new notebook.

I'd been reading a lot about the new notebooks. So I went to the store and asked the clerk where they were. He pointed them out and I picked out the color I wanted. I asked him if they were the latest version and he said he just put them out a few minutes earlier. I asked if this was the best one. He said that he has some others that were more expensive and that would hold more information but that they would also be heavier. I explained that weight and portability were important to me. I asked if he had one in a box and he said they don't come in a box. It was a lot less expensive than I expected and I was really glad, being on a tight budget. I asked the clerk if it came with any instructions and he looked at me like I was some kind of idiot. What a jerk. He said that using it should be pretty self explanatory. I asked if I could go online if I needed help. He said he guessed so but couldn't even tell me what web site to go to and he didn't know the 800 number. So I gave up and took the darn thing home. Well I've just about taken it apart. There are tiny bits of paper all over the floor and all that left is a sprial wire. Now I've wasted seventy nine cents plus tax and still not technologically up to date. So much for that.
