Re: Off Topic
I've never actually owned a laptop. Although towards the end of this year I'm thinking of getting one. Kinda nervous really, wanna get it right.

Re: Off Topic
Huh, well then, be sure to know what you plan on doing with said laptop, it's good to know what spec you're looking at so you don't end up getting too much or too little.

Re: Off Topic
Well I don't do any gaming on the PC anymore so that should help a lot. I just want a laptop that doesn't get too hot if you have it on your lap or a surface. Because my friend had a laptop where the fan was underneath and it used to seriously over-heat & cook. It's a bad design to have the fan on the bottom surely..Master wrote:Huh, well then, be sure to know what you plan on doing with said laptop, it's good to know what spec you're looking at so you don't end up getting too much or too little.

Re: Off Topic
Yeah when laptops are of concern, research is pretty important. Harder to fix than a desktop can be. At least, if the manufacture own OEM products doesn't suck horribly.

Re: Off Topic
My typo in your quote? Thanks to the infamous auto correction the iPad tried on me. 
It didn't like me typing "OEM".

I usually have autocorrection off on my iPhone 5s.

I think we need to call in the Daleks to exterminate the double post at once!

Re: Off Topic
No problem, though I wouldn't really bother with bumping in an announcement thread, seeing as it's always at the top. Either ways, I don't see why there was as significant an uproar over a double post in the first place.

Re: Off Topic
I need to know how I can stop the forum from sending updates to my email. I haven't been able to figure it out.

What kind of updates? The only updates I get from the forum is when I get PMs.

Re: Off Topic
Oh no, I especially enjoy myself without a phone. I use it for music when I feel like it and some important internet things/surviving boring lectures by coming here.Adsolution wrote:When I had no phone for a bit, I actually didn't have a hard time with it, I somehow always managed to entertain myself. I did notice that I'd get rather bored at checkout lines though.
Thing is, I'm all for others going full zombie on their pocket machines, but if I think of myself joining that crowd, it disgusts me. People lose sight on the beautiful world around them because their screen is more interesting twenty-four-seven.
Yes, I'm dramatic. But here are my thoughts on the matter.
