Rocking Woes...

No, not rockclimbing, not rock music either, nor rock on, baby!

The notebook I am working on right now has a balance issue. It's a touchscreen NB and if you poked it's screen, it rocks on its haunches. Poke it hard and it might even flip totally over. The engineers have no alternatives other than adding dummy weights to the other end to counter-balance it.

Hello, this is a thin and light, mobility NB - no extra weights just because you screwed up!

Perhaps we should really consider the idea of suction cups instead of front rubber feet. Ala fruit juicer machines.

Or more drastic measures



It's days like this that you sit in geekdom and wonder why are the geeks here all idiots?
