i hadn't realized the amount of world dignitaries in attendence. Anyway , I was not particularly a fan of his, but he is no longer in office and this is an occasion afforded each former President.

Jump to postI have a pet peeve with tinted front and side windows. .

Jump to postI thought the advantage (reason?) of not having a large storage was that many people are moving to / projected to move to cloud based storage. Many service providers provide that now.

Jump to postI'd just sell the older one. Make sure the person you sell it to knows there was a trackpad issue. Could they use it with external mouse only?

I'm sure 'visiting' certain states is not exactly the point, but rather taking a nice trip thru them and seeing what can be of offer.
