My New Laptop
Since someone asked...here are the specs on my new laptop. I only got 256 MB of RAM because I can get it cheaper than ordering it with the assembly. I stepped down on the hard disk, cuz face it--no one needs a 40 gigs of HD space on their laptop when they have 100 gigs or so in their desktop. Went from DVD/CD-RW combo to the 8X DVD...I'm thinking about buying an external DVD burner I can use with both the laptop and my desktop. 14.1" screen cuz it's a half-pound lighter than the 15" ones and I'll be carrying the thing a lot to and from school.

Nice computer!
It's just as good as my desktop. (Almost)

~$600 shipped
I was looking at various other things. Tablets are cool, but a little on the expensive side. As laptops get smaller, the keyboard quality starts to suck too. (Hard to fit all those keys in such little space) I saw a really nice laptop with a wide screen in circuit city. IT HAD A NUMBER PAD (a rarity in laptops...i was hoping to find a cheap laptop with a numpad)

I paid shitloads more (almost $1800) for my laptop almost 3 years ago, and damn man, the specs on my baby are horrid compared to that...

Damn. I been unistalling software and delteing files left and right to keep at least 1.5 gigs free. It was not really a problem until this year when I had to install a lot of stuff for school that just ate up hard drive space so some games had to go. Cds had to be burned. I deleted and uninstall over 8 gigs worth of stuff so far. so curretnly I have 5 gigs free but I am not sure how much longer that will last
