My laptop is amazing. But I still bought a typewriter. There&#39;s something about well-made things that are built to last that really inspire me. I&#39;m just not a fan of our disposable culture. I&#39;d like to have a little talking to with whatever consultant came up with the concept of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence" target="_blank">planned obsolescence</a>.</p><p>From <a href="http://www.onekingslane.com/">One Kings Lane</a></p> <p></p><p>
