Well, today I got me one of these:
Haha, did you see I got one and liked it so you have to get one too?
Well, today I got me one of these:
That is the slickest looking laptop i've ever seen.LOLcats cannot be evil.
I just picked myself up one of these:
Sony AR520E.
17" widescreen
Intel Centrino Duo T7100 1.8GHz processor
2G DDR2
nVidia 8400M GT video card
HDMI output
200g hard drive
Wireless N ready
1.3 megapixel webcam (which will likely never be used)
Vista Home Premium
I bought it as a left-over model for $899. MSRP is $1549.99. Now I just need to find a decent bag that will fit this monster.
As this is factory sealed, where can I find some n00b guides to jailbreaking (if I even need to, I dont really know what that is!!) and customising it?
... why the hell would the first version of XP only see harddrives up to 140 GB? And why would SP2 see it that much differently? Weird shit. I blame Microsoft for being inadequate.
Heh, I don't think there is any OS which supports characters like that in a filename? I never tried it in Linux, but on the other hand never had the intention to do so. Why would one want to make filenames even more confusing? Readability is key.
YES! I finally got my new hard drive dock up and working. Formatting the drive right now. Partitioning it was a bitch though, having no extra SATA cables, I had to partition it using a windows installation disk. First I tried my old (first version) XP installation disk on it ... and it would recognize the drive as having only 140 GB of the 500 GB it actually has ... WTF. Then I tried partitioning it with my SP2 XP installation disk I got with my laptop ... and success.

it's not the end of the world if I lose PC power.
But what would you do with all that time...
