This personal coffeemaker brews directly into a 15-oz. stainless-steel thermal mug that fits most car cup holders. Featuring a removable filter basket with a permanent filter, cord storage and a coffee ready signal, this coffeemaker is ideal for getting coffee on the go.

The pot makes almost 16 ounces, so I pour about half into a ceramic cup, add some half-and-half, and drink from that. Perhaps that is why I don't notice any plastic taste some others elsewhere have commented on. I also use a filter, which will reduce the amount of grounds in your cup (though pouring it into the other cup helps as well).
It only takes a few minutes to brew, makes loud burbley-steamy sighing sounds when it nears completion, and turns itself off.
(In Sec 2006...I noticed I had thrown out the plastic filter somewhere along the line. I could order a new one I guess, but the paper filters work fine.
The last few days it is only processed 1/2 the water through the system a couple times, so I may be looking for a new one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Minimal, but OK

Somewhat of an impulsive buy (though I did read up and window-shop a couple times). I have a 7-year old 10" netbook I use for storing and viewing photos while on vacation. Now back at school, that netbook was a bit too slow (with too low of a screen resolution, and tiny keyboard) to use at all if needed.
So, I was looking at a "15 HP minimal laptop for $229, but I got this open box (looks unused) for $65 less. No DVD (not really needed in these "download days") and though it is an inch smaller it has a slightly larger keyboard because there is no 10-key next to it. It has a tiny solid-state drive, so storage is limited. I put a couple hours-worth of music on it, and installed a small photo program (that I may remove) leaving me about 10GB of space - not even 1 SD card full of photos. However, I can work around that by getting a couple 64GB USBs to temporarily hold vacation photos though those days are mostly over. Removing games and other unused software bits won't really make much difference in space. the keyboard feels good, though the touchpad takes some getting used to as most do. It has a built-in delay (removable) so you don't mess up typing on accident. I don't know if all touchpads work the same way, but you can pinch, expand and scroll with it. The biggest annoyance is Cortana popping up, seemingly at the slightest twitch.
It works OK for web-browsing and email and other light duty, but don't expect much more. It is not for power-tripping all day on. It included 1-year Office 365 and 1 TB on OneDrive
