Goodbye, old friend...

[chrisman01]

I finally sold my old car, and I know exactly what I'll do with the money:

TIME FOR AN UPGRADE!

Here's my current PC (I'm thinking about changing my sig, so I'll describe it here):

--Dell Latitude CPx J650GT--
built in the year 2000
Pentium III 650mhz (

Good! You're getting a new laptop, eh? You finally sold your old car and you'll more money!

 

[chrisman01]

Yup! Gawd, I'm excited!

kinda funny if you think about it... would you rather have a car or a sweet laptop? hmm...

 

[Splych]

wtf!? Car for laptop! That's not awesome... But still, Your computer is... Decent. That's what my older sister and younger sister play on. I use a P4 3.4Ghz, 2GB RAM (Planning on upgrading to 4GB), 64MB Video Card (Planning on upgrading to 512MB from Dad), 40GB + 640GB HDD, DVD Reader, DVD Writer (Yes Seperate, I got 2!) and so on...

I am shocked you can work with that xDD. Have fun with the laptop. That thing can run a few things, try CoD4. It's a pretty fun game, especially when you get the hang of it. Your next goal should be getting a new car and you should also get yourself a desktop computer for home. Unless, you are gonna be making that as a portable item, which'll make it easier to move around. That would be awesome.

Man, I thought my computer was bad.

 

[wchill]

Damn, I thought my computer was bad as well.

 

[anaxs]

i sayu get hp if u ask me but any way ur gettin a pretty good laptop

any ways how much money did u get

 

[Alato]

Pfft, that's better than every computer I've ever owned. And the new one I just built today is about equivalent to that. Although it has a 32MB Graphics card. Weaker CPU, though. And only 2 GB hard drive until I find my old 20 GB one I have lying around somewhere around the house... I need a new computer. But I also need money. :/

thanks... now I'm going to have nightmares tonight...

I sold my car cuz I'm going to college in Portland, Maine, which is a pretty big city, so if I need to go somewhere I can walk or ride my bike.

And my job is on-campus

 

[blackfira]

Damn. I never knew numbers like those could exist.

 

[Splych]

Damn Joe. Those are some really slow computers. I am happy I have upgraded to this current computer... Hoping to either get a decent laptop slightly faster than my PC or to be able to buy my own parts for a Gaming PC and then that's it. I am gonna ask for one of those two for my graduation present once I graduate. I am gonna put only those 2 things as the stuff I want.

I remember making a thread a while back for if these parts for a PC were good. I don't plan on spending a lot, or getting some special gaming case. Just as long as it has a window, 2 optical drive slots, at least 1 floppy drive slot, and at least 2 HDD bays. That's all I am looking for in a case. Anyway, have fun with that laptop. It'll be pretty nice to finally get something faster. Just make sure you don't break it or get it stolen xDD
