OOBE and the New Toy

摘要

It's late afternoon on Sept. 30, 2015, and-finally-after four trips to the mailbox (one just a half hour ago), I see the package at last. My latest computer, an Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet, has arrived. Just what I need-right? A pure impulse buy, similar to almost all of those Kindle ebooks that flood my life. This is my fifth computer. And I don't mean in my lifetime of purchases, I mean the fifth working computer in my one-bedroom apartment. There's the big guy, my HP Pavilion desktop; then the ever-ready-never-used laptop backup; the rarely used Apple iPad; and the constantly used Kindle e-reader. And now, my first ever Android device.
