Hi! Holger,

On Sun, 19 Jan 14, you wrote to me:

Our extreme minimum is -3.something, some winters, and then only during a
couple of weeks.

You know, for some reason that reminded me that I'm still wearing my full
winter beard.  :)  Still comfortable in the heat.  I'm quite surprised.

Neat toy.  I did a Google search on the beastie, and read one review which
gave it a positively glowing report.  It's nice to see that it has a
fair-sized trackpad as I don't like those dinky little stick-pointer
doovers in the keyboard.  The whole shebang looks like a solid performer
for you.

 HG> Have a cool day,

It was a bit of a hot one.  I won't bore you with details.  We're in for a
h-o-double-t spell for a few days to come.

Cheers,
Paul.
