"A few weeks ago, Ponzi suggested that we could read our marriage vows from our respective laptops during the ceremony," writes ubergeek Chris Pirillo. A couple of ThinkPads didn't seem to fit the bill, so "two Eo UMPC v7110 256/40 (white) units were soon en route to our new home address".
This could be the first recorded practical use for Origami-style UMPC (Ultra Mobile PC) Tablet PCs. ;-)
Fortunately, Pirillo taped printed versions of the vows to the back of each unit....
After I finished, Ponzi read her vows -- and as she was just about to finish, the UMPC suspended itself! Ponzi said that Windows crashed, the audience exploded in laughter, and I quickly flipped her tablet around so that she could refer to the printed copy.
Still, it seems one guest liked the devices so much, he stole one....
Our Defence of Catchy Headlines Rapid Response Unit adds: Yes, we know "suspends" isn't the same as "crashes" but apparently Ponzi used the C-word.
