    Any active groups in DFW?

    Re: How do you pass time on the Internet ?

    Man, I must have read thousands of articles on Wikipedia, practically every day for at least an hour or two. I'm addicted to knowledge and information, too, I guess.

    I used an ASUS Chromebook for a bit and just found it inadequate for all except simple browsing - which it what it's geared towards. You might be served better with a cheap HP Stream or something.
