New Laptop

Well, indeed I bought a new laptop yesterday, the dv4t hp pavilion. :)  I got a really good deal for it off of ebay but still new.

 

It was kinda a funny story buying the laptop.  It turns out the person offering it for the cheapest on ebay lived in Phoenix (my city of residence) too, so we met at a local Walmart.  However, she happened to bring the wrong model, ready to sell us the dv6t, which needless to say, is a lot more expensive. (It has the new i7 processor, which has quad-core hyper-speed processors!  Plus it's 15.6" instead of the 14.1" dv4t)

 

However, I, being the good citizen I am, informed her of the mix-up and after she went home to get the right laptop, I found myself with a new laptop. :)

It runs quite smoothly, and I'm really happy.  Plus it's Windows 7!  Looks really cool, and I'm already getting used to it.

But man, the dv6t had a sweet graphics card, wireless n, quadcore. :(  That woulda been a sweet $400 discount or so!

 

Anyway so I'm in the middle of transferring a bunch of files from my old desktop to the laptop, so bear with me as I won't be using Renoise or GM or doing anything else productive on the computer for a day or two while I set up everything on here.  So far FireFox is just about what it used to be, and that's about it.

 

Also, I changed my email address from the childish and obsolete perfectible to joshua.caleb.steele/@/gmail/./com (minus the forward slashes).  The old email forwards to the new one but I might be changing my MSN here soon so just wanted to let you guys know.

Haha, perfectible is obsolete? meaning you've achieved perfection?

Nice.

I wish. :P

It's more like people get the wrong idea (can you spell your email?: p-e-r-f-e-c-t OH YOU LITTLE CONCEITED BRAT! ... ), so I decided to avoid the old one altogether.
