gollark: It works surprisingly well, apart from the viewing angles on the screen being awful, but it's always on my desk anyway.
gollark: My laptop is a cheap businessy one I got for £150 and upgraded.
gollark: Here's my experimental notes thing "working" somewhat.
gollark: I have a drawing tablet somewhere because my brother wanted one and didn't use it much, only £60 and it... technically works.
gollark: Minoteaur, my highly WIP notes thing, uses CommonMark + extensions.
