<p>This morning, I came across <a href="http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/news-18470-New+RilakKuma+Netbook+from+Bandai+%28Netbooks+for+Kids%29.html" target="_blank">this</a>. You cannot imagine both my delight and glee at this creative take on the popular RilakKuma merchandise.</p>
<p><strong>Specs</strong>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Powered by Atom N270 (1.6GHz)<br />
- 1GB of RAM<br />
- 160GB HDD<br />
- 8.9” screen &#8211; 1024&#215;600 resolution</p>
<p>Currently only being sold in Japan, this adorable little laptop sells for ¥79,800 JPY (this is approximately $842.00 USD).</p>
<p>You might remember the <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,278887,00.html" target="_blank">Hello Kitty laptop</a> also being sold only in Japan for approximately $1,650 USD. I can only say that hands down, Hello Kitty has been beaten out by this tiny bear who decided to smile so brightly. Not only does this laptop cost less, but it can be carried around without worry in this convenient case:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51" title="case" src="http://www.shainabear.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/case.png" alt="case" width="400" height="309" /></p>
<p>Who was it that said money did not buy happiness?</p>
<p>If you are like myself who does not reside in Japan at this current date and time, it is not too late to join in on the RilakKuma parade. You can find this bear&#8217;s merchandise for a decent price <a href="http://www.jbox.com/SEARCH/rilakkuma" target="_blank">here</a> on jbox.com. You too can gain a little piece of happiness to call your own.</p>
<p>On an unrelated note: I posted something after over a year of letting this blog sit and collect dust. I feel content having this as my first official post &#8211; it just had to be done. Now how do I spread the joyous word of this small bear?</p>
