Yeah... it sucks, but what'ya gunna do?! As far as laptops, I have the old Inspiron 600m in use. HA, thought it was fully retired. It's lost its power panel and I see the MB below it. Plus, ITS SLOW, needs a format new install. But it's got me online. I miss my Inspiron 15. However, a few months ago I dropped it at the airport security. It worked well months later but it did have a crack. Ill get another one, maybe an Inspiron 17. I got it at dell outlet. Im sure Ill dell outlet it again.
Ordered the rest of my parts to finish the build. RAN OUT OF $$$$ for the SSD because I'm waiting on a check that has not been sent to me yet from a March invoice but in its place I grabbed a 1TB drive to get going. I'll certainly grab the 80GB or so SSD drive and reinstall OS if need be on it. Getting sick of seeing all those parts sitting here in the room.
