nadinerine.com there’s always someone cooler than you

Damn they don’t make ‘em like this anymore.

My laptop is falling apart. Literally. She’s been a great computer, I’ve put her through absolute hell. She’s swam in coke, swam in water, and has been thrown around more times than I care to mention. However… I think I’m going to have to get a new one sooner rather than later.

• The screen is starting to get lines down it in random places.
• The hinges are wobbly, meaning I’m far too scared to close her on the off chance I’d never be able to get her open again.
• She’s missing keys, including the right arrow, which makes playing Tetris a total pain in the ass.
• The USB ports are playing up. It’ll read my flash drive for 10 seconds, then stop again, then start again, then stop again and then start again. I can’t even use my graphics tablet.

Poor Adele. (A Dell, get it? And no, I didn’t name her; she was inherited from my mother when my previous laptop was stolen.)

Hold that thought!
Screen could be cable… linked to the ‘loosness’ - which is most like just some screws. Keyboard- easily replaced; USB ports may just need cleaning…. Your call ;)

psha. im like. convincing myself i need a new computer here

Kris, not everybody has the time, effort, skill, ability or willpower to do all that shit to their ‘puter. And after all that when it still doesn’t work… oh yeah and then even if after yuou buy a new keyboard an dspend hrous taking it apart and putting it back together to get to the cable, you’re left with the same, broken, non-working laptop that has a brand new keyboard you still have to buy a new computer.

Don’t listen to him Nadine. Buy that dell we talked about the other day. Except I think the special has ended.

Mark: I’m offering to help her here, as a friend :P It’s not the first time I’ve fixed her puter… well, it was adams’ sis last time :P

Oh, and we all know that when people say “Your Call” it really translates to “I’ve given you my opinion and you should take it and do what I suggested, and damn you if you don’t”

you two are bitchfighting in my comments :P

It’s a sure fire way to end up with about 80 - remember those days on my site?

Yes well I hope everyone has growed up since then. Hey, lets see how long we can make this comments thread without fighting :)

we’ll - we’re not really fighting now. But we’re not really ‘commenting’ on topic. So, I wouldn’t blame deany for deleting all this :P

Topic smotpic… ok that rhyme didn’t work.

you two are hopeless ;)

Hopeless popeless

Aww. I hope that you are able to get a new laptop soon.

I was just wondering if you could get a great ‘two for the price of one’ deal on a pretty new mac.. You should really look into that :p
