miserly pains

Jul 23, 2010 20:47

In case you're wondering why the sad-face, I just bought myself an upgraded upgraded studio 15 from dell. (I'm still aiming for a mac once I start making money.) With college supplies, costs and a lock for it... Poo poo for me, I have exactly $125.58 left in cash ( Read more... )

real life, tech geekery

If you've got Windows 7 you should be okay. I haven't used it, but people seem to like it. The Apple Store does have a certified Refurbished section like Dell, so that might be worth checking out some time. I've had some Dells and as machines I've had excellent luck with them. They can't be blamed for what Windows does and Windows 7 is apparently an improvement. I hope so because after Vista and Me I was beginning to think they got XP to function by complete accident.

And hey if it shows you pictures of Davis, it's all good :)

Windows 7. So much better.

I liked Windows 7 on my mom's comp, but I don't like the themes because they seem to slow down the computer. That nearly got me to choosing a mac, but the student discounts weren't quite enough to make me comfortable moneywise. I'm gonna figure out a way to get it to show up with simple wallpaper and I'll be cool.

When I do get a mac I want to go for a computer. with the 8 tb hard drive and the 32 gb of memory. I'll figure out how to use it, besides multiple davis's, later. ;)

Vista had the same problem. The pretty Aero interface they were making a fuss over? Sucks up the RAM.

But dear god that's a lot of TBs! haha I think the iMac only fits 16 gb of RAM. You need a mac pro!

OS X isn't that hard to learn. It's certainly better than Windows IMO. Hands down.

Davis, davis, Davis *pets him all over*

I mean that one. :p Ugh I have an impreciseness thing going there.

BUT YEAH EET HURTS MAH POCKET.Just thinking about it. 2.5 of what I spent today. BUT THEN THERE'S THAT NICE ARSE DAVIS YOU'RE PETTING THAR. Don't try and hide it! I know how your mind works!(I took that from being human, never mind.) The course of true love never did run smooth, indeed. me/vid editing too.

Mac os? Much prettier too.

I'm happy though. I just figured out how to disable themes. XD

Poo poo for me, I have exactly $125.58 left in cash.

OH HAI! We can share 100 ways to survive on- a cent, y/y? One way, I believe firmly is to chant DAVIS! at the top of your longs until someone comes out of the smoking ash. Or you get sent to a facility with paid care.

I blame them for my money woes. They're just promiscous little things. They've already bourne ten children.

100 ways to survive on a cent? I have about five and then I just go broke.

This college thing is the equivalent of a someone running a vacuum over your body to suck out the cash and then that same person holding you upside down by the legs and shaking until every last cent drops out.

BTW that facility would have free food, wouldn't it?

Yay for a new computer!!

And BUY A MAC. SO WORTH IT.

vagrantdream July 24 2010, 03:04:48 UTC

Hee! Thanks.

Once I'm doing something profitable- oh you betcha!

skye718 July 24 2010, 17:04:26 UTC

by profitable you mean sending Davis down in the basement with only a towel, right?

vagrantdream July 26 2010, 03:42:02 UTC

Okay, so maybe that way I could stomach being poor as a church mouse. I'd never get anything done hehe.

Literally though, it would be nicer to have a job and Daavis coming in for 'Physical therapy'.

*hides*

We bought a Vegas Studio not too long ago but I had so much trouble with geting started and getting finished (the in betweens were a breeze, even enjoyable) and handing in a video without sound to my teacher, I haven't stomached to look at it since.

I know the feeling of poor poor, with my bank account at almost that exact amount, I couldn't afford board and had to promise to pay double later :( I blame JB HI-FI, walking into an electronics and entertainment store with a big sign hanging up that said 'BUY 2 TV ON DVD GET 1 FREE', it was like a moth to a flame. ALthough I finally got Supernatural season 4! And for the low low price of zero dollars and zero cents XD! Thumbs up for porny davis manips btw, very excited with anticipation :)
