I looked in the back and it has a place to connect a mouse, but no place to connect a keyboard, so you're stuck with the default keyboard. And that keyboard completely lacks the '*' and '/' keys which increase & decrease octaves in modplug tracker. Plus its the kind of keyboard where if you push 3 or more buttons simultaneously it will make a beeping noise (basically can't play doom 2 on it). Even if I managed to figure out how to install a good keyboard, the screen would then be far away from the shit keyboard now taking up dead space.
Plus when you plug in a mouse, the terrible eraser-head thing still works anyway, only now even worse because I had to go to control panel and make the normal mouse move faster- which in turn makes the trackball move way too fast.
All well; I now have to figure out what software erases the hard drive so I can sell this safely, and buy a normal good computer with a flat screen monitor finally hopefully.
And thus ends my longish uninteresting arbitrary message. I can't even think of any potential reply to this. I'm so sorry for wasting your time.
Sincerely, Fagmaster 4 of the Fag Universe

mine is great and super but it's getting beaten up pretty badly from being lugged around all over the place.

maybe keyboards are usb for laptops (not the one for my other computer); i don't know. all well; I just don't like it really. But it is very quiet and very small and light. My other computer hums like maybe 1/4 of refrigerator volume.

You can get a USB numerical keyboard for laptops. Maybe one of them will help!

If you hold on for a month you'll be able to get yourself an upgraded macbook.
