- brokenmachine 7y agoI had one of those. It was fun, but "luggable" makes it sound more romantic than it was to carry around. It weighed 10.5kg. 10.5kg becomes heavy very quickly, especially because of its awkward shape.

- jasonkester 7y agoA stone is a common British unit of weight equalling fourteen pounds. You actually unfixed his sentence.
- HeWhoLurksLate 7y agoTIL! I guess I Americanized it, then?
- reaperducer 7y agoA hillbilly never-used-a-computer-a-day-in-his-life relative of mine has one. He bought it new, but never even turned it on. The last time I saw it was about five years ago, and it was in absolutely mint condition, even though he keeps it under a tarp with a bunch of junk in a barn. For decades he kept promising to send it to me since he has no use for it. Recently that changed to "I'm gonna use it some day" so I no longer have any hope of getting my hands on it.
