A bad night:
Month-old laptop crashed for mysterious reasons (seriously, I have NO idea. I didn't even download anything new, or transfer new files, etc etc since the last time I used it. Heck I've used my laptop 5+ times since I last downloaded any software on there), forcing me to go to Sony Style to try and fix the problem. The manager had no ( Read more... )

Wow, at least it died BEFORE you got to uni right? >.< Clearly there's something wrong with that laptop... or just that brand. xD;; Lacey changed her laptops a total of 3 times in the first month or two. But she has really bad luck with comps (and they were all hp anyways).
They prob will be wipe clean >.< But at least it isn't much?

Ew Windows 7. xD I'm sure it's not... TOO bad though. Less complains than Vista so far it seems (or I haven't been in the right places to hear about it).

I would've so went for a Mac if it meant getting a free iPod touch! FREE. I'm so Asian. xD;;

=( Oh no Prison Break!! Okay that's sad. D= I'll.... send GG vibes while I'm watching? xD;

Most people I ask, all have good opinions about Sony though. Plus you know me; I'm a bitch about quality (and aesthetics) so Sony was my best choice anyway. And yea, I'm glad this happened -before- uni.
I have bad luck overall! Lol.

Actually, Windows 7 has gotten REALLY good reviews so far. A lot of people who are trying to downloadable trial version adore it. That's what I'm hearing at least.

LOL yea it's such an incentive to buy. And Apple kept emailing about it. CONSTANTLY. Like OMG STOP. x____x

YES SEND GG VIBES I MISS CHUCK AND BLAIR AND GEORGINA'S CRAZY ASSS!!!!

Yeah, Sony isn't bad, I strangely just don't like them. o.o; I don't know why.
Pft, when did you start having bad luck overall? >.> You do not.

Makes sense considering all the complaints I heard even when Vista was beta whereas Windows 7 has not gotten any bad hype lol You can tell me how it is, and I'll upgrade my yucky Vista to it if it's good ;)

That's weird, speaking of, I haven't gotten any Apple emails lately. X_X They hate me! lol

<3 Chuck and Blair are totally heartbreaking right now though. There are the little scenes but they are 90% sad =( Georgina is going to take forever to show her crazy-ass.... like 20 episodes later >.> lol I'm at the whole start of Blair's de-throning and Serena becoming Queen. Oh and Jenny story launch as she becomes all designer rocker guru. It's SO weird when I see her give Vanessa advice on Nate when they know they are going to end up together -_-

Lol to each their own right? After buying the laptop, I realized I have quite a few Sony things without ever considering the name when I bought them. x_X

I have tons of bad luck. .___.
Oui :) I shall.

I love their heartbreak. &hearts
The only part I liked about that was the Yale cat-fight haha. Some of J's were great :)
NJV triangle is bluhhh. I'll be asking you to skip those when we get to it lol.

I hope that you backed up all your data otherwise that would sucked if it didn't. And I hope you get your laptop fixed soon. :D

Thanks. Most of it's still on my desktop so I'm ok as long as nothing happens to my desktop before I back it up. x_x

IKR? The guy had no idea what was wrong with it... personally I'm blaming Vista for now...

btw, do you know how to get rid of the grey square LJ icons for the comments (e.g. "screen" "edit" and "delete")? I noticed you just had text on your layout and I've been hunting around lj comms to find out how to get it like that.

Hum, i do not really get what you mean. D:
Like, when you had enabled screened comments for an entry, then all the replies will be appeared in a grey something-ish, until you unscreen them. Is this what you saying?

No no, I know about the screen stuff. I meant this?

Oh noes! Already broken down?!?! I thought they were fairly reliable. Which model did you get? Hopefully it doesn't use that NVIDIA graphics card since it's known to cause some problems. At least Sony is offering to fix that for free unlike HP.

Yes, install Windows 7 once it arrives. It is way better than the crappy Vista OS. People using the trail versions of W7 are very happy with it so far, so that's definitely a good sign. That is until someone finds a flaw in it and decide to exploit it.

Macs would be so awesome! I spent an hour in that Apple store! Wish I could get one lol.

Z710, it's the newest one. It's supposed to be very reliable, had nice reviews. Currently I'm blaming Vista...
:( Oh no. It has NVIDIA...

I'm counting on that. I just don't know about the next 2 months, if I should downgrade to XP. Yes, I've heard the good reviews on 7. My friend is a tech buff and he adores it lol.

I hate going in to Apple stores. I leave wanting something lol.

OMG... you got a Z series laptop lol. They're awfully pricey (I would rather get a Mac instead if I was paying that price). Not sure about the good reviews since the older models had some wiring issues and whatnot. I have a friend that owns one and it is extremely light and it does look very nice though. Well NVIDIA graphics card had an overheating problem that would kill whatever is on your screen. It was part of the mass recall earlier a week ago? Don't remember the exact date. I'm thinking of getting one of those portable P series laptops lol. It'll be easier to carry it around... I'll see.

I'm sure you can stick through 2 months, no need to downgrade and waste all that effort for such a short period of time. Yeah I have a friend that's also a tech buff and he's in love with w7 right now haha. Always nice to have techies around =P.

I know eh?! It's so depressing to walk out of the store empty handed. *wants to buy a laptop and get that free ipod lol*

So when are you headed to uni for all the fun and excitement of o-week?

They are but I thought of it as a good investment. I hope it proves true, consider how many weeks I spent trying to decide on a laptop this year. I wanted a Mac but it's not recommended for QComm.

I only have only techie lol and he's in Mac! I always miss him wayyyy more when everything starts crashing on me. Not that I don't miss him before that...

Moving in on 6th! Freaking out!
