Alas, Poor Pero
30 Mar, 2023
Pero, my Asus laptop, is signalling that it will soon join its namesake in machine heaven. Maybe there is a lesson here about not naming computers after sympathetic machine intelligences whose plot arc ends with their violent deaths. Be assured I will select a more durable namesake for Pero’s replacement.
After considerable dithering online research, the best fit for my needs (ease of use, repairability, actually being available for purchase) is Framework’s Laptop 13 (12th Gen). I am about half way to the purchase price.
