That press, is it basically a giant iron or something?


I really hate Ironing. In fact, if my pants are not....ok coming out of the dryer....they might just get washed again. Sometimes hanging them in the bathroom while I take a shower does the trick though.

No need to wash them again, just wet-down a towel and toss it in the dryer with the pants. Also, make sure you remove the pants as soon as the dry cycle is done, and they don't get wrinkled.

Not my loot but my fiancee's from me:  Asus EEE PC

It's the bomb.  A linux (Xandros) laptop with OpenOffice, Mozilla/Thunderbird, Skype, etc.  "It just works".  Weighs 2 lbs.  Only drawback is a full but smallish keyboard and monitor, both of which can be swapped out with USB monitor/keyboard etc.  Best piece of kit I've seen in a long time.

The biggest problem is the battery, actually.

It's the 3300 model, though in black and wood. You can get them to hang on the wall too.

It's basically a heating pad of sorts. Takes about 30 minutes, but is safe enough to leave the pants in overnight. The thing I really like is that it maintains the creases. I used to get my pants pressed once a month or so, but I got lazy about it. And I hate ironing.

Next Christmas I'm hoping to get one that does shirts

Nice!  I almost picked one of these up for myself over the holidays but decided on a bunch of games instead.  I don't have a legitimate use for one but I've wanted a god damn pocket pc since I was a kid and saw Penny's computer book thing in Inspector Gadget. 

I didn't get much loot this Christmas, just some Linen.  I knew that would be the case months ago though and have spoiled myself rotten with games.

You really never have to iron anything,  if you're good about drying to slightly damp,  removing immediately after the dryer stops, and then hanging up with the appropriate hangers.
