Getting my sisters laptop

I'll be on more often from next week and on since my sister is giving me her old laptop

Yay!

Double yayz!

Sounds pretty damned awesome!

My family doesn't even OWN a laptop. Something about the fact they're not hardware upgradeable.

**cough**

yes they are

EDIT: well... actually some are, not all

Okay, they are, but only a tiny bit. You buy THEIR products, whereas with desktop computers you can mix and match parts from other companies.

Not only that, but the parts have to be compatible with the laptop, and as you know laptops will eventually become obsolete, forcing you to pay another whopping of cash just to get another one,

GAY I say. Although they're good if only used for professional uses only.

i totally agree with that... but you cant take your desktop anywhere!!

"Although they're good if only used for professional uses only."

I prefer laptops because I go to college, and my parents were such inconsiderate assholes they decided to separate, now I live in 2 houses.

I got a laptop mainly because everyone is always using the available computer. Unfortunately, same problem goes for the laptop. I was waiting for my dad to finish up on there (I have no idea why he didn't use the desktop because it was available) but then my much older (and better) sister spent about 5 hours to work on a script for a school project (high school senior).
Also, I got it for the fact that the only other computer I own is a PowerPC Mac Mini I bought from my friend back in 2004 and the laptop is much better than our desktop.

Sharing a computer is always crappy, I've had my own laptop for about 6 years now.

i finally just got my own laptop for Christmas

cant wait for tommorow!@!@!
