muah. ah. ahhhh.
the short version:
so you know how i'm always bitching about not having a laptop. and how i bum off EVERYONE and their second cousin?
YOU WILL NEVER HEAR EITHER. EVER AGAIN.
AAAAAHHAHAHAHAHHAA
AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAAAAAA
can't you tell? i'm excited.
the long version:
so I come home, and tell my pop i'm thinking about eventually buying a laptop. he shoves a postcard from lenovo in my face: because we're ibm shareholders, we get 36%. yes. MORE THAN A THIRD off laptops this month in combination w/ the shareholder discount and some spring thing they're doing.
obviously, i must pounce on this. after hours of digging through their website, reviews, and nail-biting consideration, (i don't actually do that) I went and bought myself a thinkpad, t61 14.1" mother----shut yo mouth. whee magnesium casing protected hardware! i didn't shell out the extra 23 bucks for the fingerprint scanner though. no matter how awesomesocks it is, i don't actually NEED that level of security. its coming in the mail to my house in san jose in like a week or two.
i'm friggin ecstatic.
since i don't have QUITE enough to buy the damn thing myself, i struck a deal w/ my parents. they'll finally stop using the hunkajunk that i'm presently typing on, and will take my desktop we bought 4 yrs ago. so they get my old compy, they loan me the difference for buying the new lappy and everybody's got actual computers that will be useful for them.
