    Surface Pro or Chromebook Air

    I've been watching Mercado Libre. The Surface Pro is my first choice and Chromebook is a distant second.

    Surface Pro or Chromebook Air

    I've been keeping an eye on Mercado Libre, but haven't found the right one yet I am leaning more toward the Surface Pro mainly because it's compatible with the writing software I use and Chromebook isn't without a difficult work-a-round.

    Surface Pro or Chromebook Air

    Nope. Not looking for any Apple product. Looking for a Chromebook. Although I do understand the confusion. "Air" is the result of trying to multi-task. Glad you caught my mistake though.

    Laptop Bag in BA

    Anyone have an idea of the best place to buy a laptop bag in B.A.? I've found a bunch on Mercado Libre, but they're all in the U.S. I want to buy one locally. Feel free to email me with tips and suggestions at [email protected] I check email often, the forums here -- not so much.

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    Well, you remember what your daddy told you about "assuming." Yep. Lived in New York and yes, have written about the DMV. As a freelance writer (about 35% of my work is ghost writing for others) I'm always looking out for article ideas -- at least when the idiot bankers here in BA aren't...

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    Nope. Didn't return to the states, well, except for a week visit in April 2015. Argentina Immigration didn't reject any documents. The clerk just said I needed to get "proof" that the bad check charge had been handled and all was clear. Mission accomplished and as I posted elsewhere in this...

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    Just the FBI criminal history. The local/state data was included in it (although there was just a local charge -- the bad check). For my fingerprints, I went to our local (we live in Begrano) police station and they got it done for me in 10 minutes.

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    UPDATE: Made the return trip to Immigration this morning and got my temporary paperwork, but I'm an Argentine resident. From what I understand, I should get my permanent ID card within 90-days. It's a good Thanksgiving!

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    Thanks for the tip. Last year when I started collecting the paperwork for this process I emailed Celano. No response from him so I pushed on.
