hey, inventors

you know what somebody should invent?

a waterproof laptop. seriously. i really could have used that while taking a bath tonight. could have done some work, could have done some blog commenting...instead, i suppose i made do with a beer and a crossword and my ipod speakers dragged to the door of the bathroom (and a few drops of this in the water, which makes your skin SO AWESOME SOFT). but, really. this is an untapped market.

get on it. i will pay you a gazillion dolllars. or the two dollars i currently have in my wallet.

Waterproof electronics are usually only temporarily waterproof because they use a greased rubber gasket to seal the seams. The gasket dries out and decays over time.

Use a wireless mouse, set your laptop a safe falling distance away on a box, reset your text size and surf.
