Straight from the serpent's mouth.  
I don't know who the fuck designed this keyboard, but they decided the most logical place for the apostrophe was right down the bottom near the space bar, because clearly the colon/semi-colon keys are more important to everyday writing. WHAT.

Otherwise, Crowley is shaping up nicely. I may be writing NaNo entirely in Notepad, but this may in fact add to the purity of the exercise. Lack of wordcount function = lack of stress, amirite?

We'll see how I go setting up a wireless network for him and go from there. All this may simply amount to typing practice on the little baby keyboard. (There is a camera, though, and now that I have Firefox, all things will be well.)

He's very lightweight. Perhaps I should have called him Sable.

[EDIT] Also, omg, NaNo sign-ups are go! X3 Have updated my info. <3 This is so exciting. X3333 Fifth year of NaNo! Wooo!

:\ Yeah. It's also bloody awful. *shudder* I'll stick with Wordpad until I can get the boys in the tech bay to hook it up to a CD drive and do a proper install.

You could also probably find a torrent of the latest Word if you don't want to wait.

The keyboard I used to have at work had a half-size spacebar. Only the half was under my left thumb, and I don't use my left thumb to hit it! =_= So.all.my.sentences.tended.to.look.like.this/
