I have noticed that everyone is buying a laptop nowadays. I remember when I bought my first notebook and I heard a lot of friends asking me why I needed a laptop.
I tried to tell them that I hadn´t enough space in my room for a desktop computer. I barely had space for my tv, let alone computer desks. I have now another laptop. Smaller than the previous one and so cute!
My friends are buying notebooks as well and I guess now they understand my choice.

One year ago I bought a cell phone that used a micro sd card. I remember that it didn´t have a lot of space so I went to a store to buy a new one.
I couldn´t find any. I searched for it on the Internet but the price was too high so I gave up on that idea. Now just one year later it is easy to find a micro sd card and the price is not that high anymore. The same thing happened with pen drives.
I wonder how much will a 2gb pendrive cost in two years. Maybe they will be free or maybe they will disappear.

A few years ago I wanted to buy a printer. I wanted to use it at home and I thought that it could be nice to buy one of those ink jet printer. The price was so low and the printer was one of the best on market.
Then I saw the price of the ink. I could buy another home printer with the money I would have to pay for four cartridges.
That moment I decided it was better to invest in a laserjet printer even if it was more expensive. At the end it was the best choice. I use my printer at home so I don´t use it that much. Nowadays it is normal to have laserjets as home printers.
They are a good option not only for offices. I never had to change the toner. This means that I have been using this printer without spending anything with it. If I had bought the inkjet printer I am sure I would have to change the cartridge a lot of times.
So if you are thinking about buying home printers give laserjet a try.

I was thinking about buying Photoshop because I wanted to play a little with it but I have seen its price and I just gave up.
It is amazing how expensive a software can be. I don´t understand why though. Do costumers have to make those companies rich? I am sure Adobe is a great company and Photoshop is almost magic but I don´t get why it cost almost a thousand dollars.
It is a lot of money. You can buy many things, real things, with that kind of money.
And it is not only Photoshop. Nowadays you can find many software with random expensive prices. I say random because I can´t understand how they calculate the price of them.
A CD is very cheap, the software is already done and I am sure the people who have created it is already well paid.
It is a thing that I will never understand and maybe I will never play with Photoshop because of its price. It should be nice if the price were more accessible. They are losing costumers. I would buy it if it weren´t a thousand dollars.

And lets say you bought that thing while you were on vacation in another country. That could be a big problem.
I have a couple of friends who had that problem. One of them bought a camera but he was able to get it fixed because that camera can be found in our country.
As for my other friend the things didn´t worked up that well. She bought a video Scard that can´t be find here so she couldn´t fix it. The only way was to send it back to US and hope they would fix it and send it back to here.
This happened last month and she already sent the video card. I guess they won´t fix it because it is easy to send a new one to her. She called them and they said the video card didn´t arrive yet.
Lets hope.
The advice I will give you is to buy only things that you know you can have a support center once you get back to your country.
