I’m a computer monitor FREAK. Some people obsess over their floors, others over their clothing. Me, I am a monitor NUT. I suppose it’s because a large chunk of my day, every day, is spent staring at the 23-inch screen on my desk. I work here, I teach the kids here, I play games and blog here. So several years ago, after suffering eye strain from lousy monitors, I decided to buy ONLY the best. And I’ve always got my eyes on monitor technology. Enter Lenovo ThinkVision. This is pretty neat! See how slim it is.

It’s marketed as a portable monitor. It’s sleek 14 inches, 2 pounds, comes with a case, and is made of durable materials for carting around. It’s USB-powered, which means there’s no frustrating power cord to pack up and carry around. Sweet! This is perfect for the business person, both as an extra monitor for improved productivity or as a great way to share stuff with clients (spreadsheets, presentations, etc). No more need for a big projector or being squeezed between clients as they squint at your tiny laptop screen. Very nice.
I also see this as a terrific addition to a homeschool. When the kids and I work on projects or papers together, we often have to shuffle our chairs closely to work together on the computer. The ThinkVision creates a very nice additional tool for kids to see what your doing. It also saves you from having to buy another computer JUST to share a screen with the other students.
The monitor is extremely reasonably priced (retail right now is only $199). If you are interested, you can get 10% off with a coupon code from Lenovo:

Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
