Posted by: | Comments
This time of year, we all start to think about what we are thankful for, because Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Taking a geekier look at the situation, I wanted to know what gadgets the Lunarpages support team, management and supervisors found most handy to have around.
Here are some of the favorite gadgets from our trusty Lunar Crew:
Daniel – “Daniel – My new EeePC. It is small and I can run Linux on it.”
Greg – “The Tiagra A, because it turns an angler into a human wench! I never go to Cabo without it!”
Renee – “My cell phone, because it let me stay in touch with my family and my best friend.”
Katie – My laptop, because I can take it with me for work, on vacation or anywhere else!”
Joe - “I am thankful for my computer, and the Internet that brought me to meet the coolest company ever! ”
Monty - “My cell phone. Thanks to it, I can never get lost again.”
Roy – “The gadget that I am VERY thankful for is my TiVo. I am able to watch all episodes of Cheer’s, 2 & 1/2 Men, Sports and all the late night shows when I want. Thank you TiVo gods.”
MichaelT – “I would have to go with the USB Flash Drive followed closely by the wireless mouse.”
Aon – “It’s a little bit difficult to own a nice PC because not much space available to place it in my house. My HP Laptop is great. I can use it on small desk. It also comes in handy to play games, work on projects, listen music and watch movies.”
Katrina – “3G wireless and my air card, it lets me work (and play) from almost anywhere.”
Orlando – “My iPhone, because I don’t have to carry my iPod and my laptop and there is an app for everything!”
Ben – “I am grateful for my stereo system because I love slappin’ da bass.”
Shawn – “Isn’t it obvious – its the spork. I don’t know where I would be without my trusty spork. I can stab my peas, or I can scoop them up… Oh, the wonders.”
Tommy – “My second monitor. Without it, I would never be able to view the 20+ windows/applications I have opened.”
Randy – “My favorite gadget would have to be my camera because I love taking pics to capture those moments in time not to mention catching people off guard so I can upload the pics online to embarrass them later MUHAHAHAHAHA! ”
Flora – “My MP3 player, because it’s compact and portable – enables me to listen to music wherever I go.”
Deb – “My cell phone is my favorite gadget because it’s my business lifeline. It does everything except the dishes, and I hear the new model is supposed to take care of those!”
Mitch – “My Nintendo DS, cause I can get my Mario-fix anywhere I go”
KrisA – “iPhone – Because it is the combination of what I need ( GPS / Games / Community / Internet / Alarm Clock / Radio / Stock ) .”
