ViewSonic V1250's are tough, too. Had started stuffing mine in a
backpack on a desk when I moved away. The backpack started
rocking, and I started to run back to it. When it stopped
rocking, I stopped running...and then backpack and baby took a
nose dive. I knew my world had imploded when I heard that THWACK.
You know what? Some of the plastic might have been scuffed. He
took some other spills like a trooper, too. I expected to have
to use my accidental damage policy for something like that, but
it was a spill of a different type that made me make that call.
Even so, a whole glass of wine meant one dead key.
My baby boy bounces, but hates to take a bath!
