Apr. 10th, 2005 04:51 amYeah, I'm up, it's late, and I really should be sleeping. But I'm being entirely unproductive, playing on a laptop that I'm strongly considering buying.
It's so pretty. It's a widescreen, 512 MB ram, 1.5 GHz Toshiba M35-S320 with a 60 GB hard drive. I guess the guy (from my dorm) got it for about 1500 a year ago, but he's selling it for $800. Which is a pretty good deal as it's barely been used. I could tell when he kept trying to Alt/Ctrl Q programs while he was showing it to me. His mom had insisted on him getting it, but he ended up being seduced by an Apple Powerbook. One of the few downsides is that the graphics card is only 32 mb, but sadly enough, I think it's still better than my desktop's graphic card.
And the mobility is a plus since typewritten things are required for all my classes. Since I'm down at Rick's Cafe a lot (especially when my roommate and her boyfriend are around) I can get a lot more done. I'm also moving off campus next year, so some access to on campus amenities would be nice. ::cough::downloading::cough::
Okay, maybe I'm shamelessly materialistic, maybe I'm not. That's not the point. The point is that this laptop deserves a nice home, and who am I to argue?
