Arrow My New Laptop

Got myself a new laptop for entertainment purposes: http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/...-33917&seg=HHO

Actually my first laptop in my life. I am stunned with the quality of monitors these days. Just viewed my website and didnt even notice some of the colors I see now compared to my old LCD screens. Apparently this laptop uses speakers for Ferrari's. I need to get an additional 1-2 gb of ram though.

Re: My New Laptop

You definitely need at least 2 GB of RAM in your computer nowadays. I'm getting a laptop so I can trade when I travel. I'll probably get a Dell but I'm also looking at this one:

James don't ever ever use it on your lap! If you wanna be a daddy one day keep your boys cool. A warm laptop can reak havoc on your gonads faster than the wrong position on a trending day.

Yea I bought a $50 silver metal heat cooler. It works like magic.

Regarding RAM, VISTA is so freaking annoying with just 1 RAM. I can fit 4gb max in here so might try to push the limit.
