 In March 2008 I bought a Fujitsu T4220 Tablet PC.  I use it as my primary mobile computer until it broke for the second time in May 2010, when I replaced it with a [[Lenovo U350]].  I used it a little bit in [[11th Grade]].  In [[Gov School]], [[12th Grade]], and [[MIT Freshman|the first semester of MIT]]; I carried it with me every day and took notes in every class on it.  I wrote [[The Quest for the Perfect Notetaking Medium]] after [[Gov School]] trumping the use of tablets in school.  I changed my mind on tablets while studying for finals at [[MIT]] and I wrote about my experience in [[Learning to Learn at MIT]].
-This computer broke frequently.  I bought a lot of accessories.  I liked the U350 more afterwards.
+I really invested in this machine by buying 3 bay batteries (way too many; I only really used one) and a bump case.  A bump case is a case in which the machine can remain while you are using it.  It also had a shoulder strap I used in [[12th Grade]], but I just put it in my backpack at [[MIT|MIT Freshman]].  Looking back, I think the case was more annoying than the protection it provided.  It was a pain to rotate the laptop, and it made it harder to hold and use the laptop I think.  It also made the computer bigger.
-It has a 2.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, 4 GB of RAM, and Windows Vista.
+This computer broke frequently.  It broke once in [[12th Grade]] when I pulled it on the floor.  One day after class I got caught in the case strap and I pulled my tablet on the floor; the computer slide easily, since the case did not provide much friction.  Ironically, I think the case actually made the fall happen.  The computer displayed a weird pattern on it and then faded to black.  When I turned it on next time, the fan spun up full and the machine did not boot up.  I replaced the motherboard (~$300) and it worked again.  In May of [[MIT Freshman|freshman year]], I was walking home from an exam in a big rainstorm.  I thought I had my backpack closed tight, but water still leaked in.  I tried buying a dead machine ($$), but I was not able to get it to work again.  Instead, I decided to buy a new computer, my [[Lenovo U350]].   Looking back, 4 months later, I think I like the U350 better; especially after I gave up on tablets during finals of my freshman year (detailed in [[Learning to Learn at MIT]])
