HP Touch Pad Still Popular ... With HP Employees
131
Earl The Squirrel joins the army of Slashdot submitters, with a story that dampens my hopes to get one of the last (cheap) HP Touch Pads. He writes: "Today HP made available to their employees (via their EPP store) one last batch of HP Touch Pads. The response has been so overwhelming that if you go to the HP store right now, you'll get the 'Please try again later' page. HP employees have 'slashdotted' their own store."

I have much the same experience. I haven't used it enough to really fall in love with it but I like the nuances so far. We have replaced the home laptop with it for most tasks which saves a ton of power.
Given that Power = mc2 / T, where T is the time you have been using the tablet, "a ton of power" is very impressive. Do you usually use nuclear explosions to represent your 1 bits?

Sounds like we have an MBA in the house.

No, I use the explosions to remove my 1 bits. The 1 bits are mountains, a crater is a zero.
Indeed. People shouldn't mix subject and body text (Score:4, Funny)

HP employees probably wanna make as much cash on the side as they can now, knowing their impending unemployment.
Maybe Meg will give them good feedback for their résumés.
A+++ worker, would hire again.
