Cool. Well, I hope it's all right and that you have no problems with it. It is a bit bigger than my old netbook, it's true, so a bit less portable, but it is /so/ much better as a computer -- better keyboard, better screen, much faster -- that I don't really mind. The chap that sold me mine suggested an SSD, as per Alan's suggestion, but it's quick enough for the light duties I put it to -- mainly writing. It has 4GB of RAM and seems to fly along with that for modest stuff. LibreOffice writer had some responsiveness issues so I've switched to Abiword, but otherwise, it's performing flawlessly. JOOI I saw some very minor screen corruption issues under 13.10 -- one character would sometimes get random "snow" in it, occasionally repeated in a few places around the screen. However the machine upgraded to 14.04 with no problems at all and this has fixed the issue.
The keyboard on my old Samsung was the only feature I didn't like. It is only a little bigger than the Samsung. It should be delivered on Monday. I could have had it earlier, but am definitely going to be around all day Monday to receive it. I'm really impressed with the amount of downloadable information on the Lenovo site. The manuals seem really comprehensive. I'm sure it will handle all I want to do with it while away from home. Thanks again all of you.
