Yay, I am going to Johns Hopkins for the NAACL summer school in Human Language Technologies. I've finally worked out tickets, too.

Now I have to find the right laptop to go with me, since I am not lugging the 45-pound beast across the country. Suggestions are welcome. Linux support is a must, and cheap and light would be nice. I'd like to use it for grad school when I get back.

One of my students just turned his homework in a week late. This poor schmoe also made every mistake I discussed in the homework review -- which he attended last week.

It's #!/usr/bin/perl -w not #!\user\bin\perl -w, dernit.
