Yeah! Got a new laptop

Posted by akabugeyes on May 27, 2007, 01:20:08 PM

Hey all. I am typing this with a brand new laptop I just got from Best Buy. This is my first ever computer that I could actually call my own. Although I will let my brother and mom use it when they want to. So I am pretty happy right now....
Some information about it:
 
Gateway
AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-50 1.6 GHz
160 GB 5400 RPM PATA hard drive
1024 MB 533 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
15.4-inch WXGA (1280 × 800)

It may not be the best, but it was only $600, so I thought it was a really good deal.

Nice, congratulations! Just out of curiosity, which OS are you running?

Right now just the one it came with - Windows Vista Home Premium. Although at some point I may try to get Ubuntu on it.

As I've explained to SleePy, I will give computers away for free. I just charge a $2000 shipping fee, and I don't send it until I get paid for shipping. Maximum value of computer is $1000.
