Besides the power adapter, I’m happy with the computer.

Yes, it’s an EEEpc by Asus running the default Linux. 7.5″ screen. 4gb memory. The stupid AC adapter keeps shorting out from power surges though. It happened once in Nepal, and just recently on Kho Phangan. Since I’m in the islands, I won’t likely be able to get it fixed or a new one until I’m back in Bangkok. Grrr.

Hey I had that exact same dinner when I was at Ark Bar for dinner on the beach back in June. I got really excited when I saw 40baht for a tuna steak, and then the waitress informed me that it was the price/100grams with a 400gram minimum. Excellent food with a fantastic atmosphere. I hope you are having fun in the islands and if you need any suggestions for places to stay or that kind of thing let me know as I was just there a month ago.

Mental note has been made….so many islands….the 6-7 weeks I’ve earmarked for them hardly seems enough!

Wish I had made it there. We opted for the closer destination of Ko Samet. I hated it there, it was just a tourist trap with rudest people in Thailand. I was actually happier in Bangkok.
