McBookaire: Field experiment with McBa

I ordered a ‘man bag’ for McBa. (Mac Book Air … I’m always accused of using acronyms) I took the 35$ one that looked like it would suffice. Some of them are price in the hundreds. Guess they think if you spring for a McBa, then you’ll spend any amount for anything. Maybe Martha; not me. The dumb thing didn’t come with a shoulder strap so I borrowed one. I’ll gripe about that vendor when I get around to it.

Any way I took McBa out in its ‘man bag’ and it worked perfectly. Fired up the vwubbie (Verizon Wireless Broad Band usb modem). And everything worked fine.

There was a wifi signal but I couldn’t connect. Argh!

McBa ran for more than 2 hours on the battery driving vwubbie.

I as careful to shut down; not just close the lid. Just closing the lid drains the battery in 12 hours.

So far, I’m pleased.
