The first was seagate, this one is western digital. The ones I'm getting were western digital since I have GENERALLY had good luck with them, and this one lasted longer than the seagate did... and really, the WD drive technically isn't dead yet, it's just showing signs of dying in the next weeks or months, so better be safe than sorry.

I just get Samsung. My WD lasted 5 years without crashing, but I wanted more performance and more durability, both which are possible with my Spinpoint F3 drive. All kinds of data... on just one platter!

I ordered my brother a new ASUS notebook PC today to replace his very outdated custom built desktop that has socket 462/A, I can't wait to set him up with something better, since he will have much better performance and won't have to worry about slow downs and opening too many programmes at the same time.
I'm still waiting for my keyboard however, this is day 16 so far.

I've had a few things arrive days after they were ordered but I usually blame Canada Post for that delay. Once Amazon sends it out ASAP, it's out of their hands.
Gotta love when the order makes a trip to several places around your area EXCEPT your city itself.

I currently don't have anything on order... so I guess I would technically be waiting on money to spend on something for my laptop so I can wait for it to arrive???
I do want to buy a blu-ray drive and see if it will work in my laptop since it only has a DVD burner. Plus my birthday is coming up and I have to give my wife some money to get me a gift. Hint hint
For me, most wait times are one extreme or the other: either I get it in a fraction of the time they said it would take, or it takes forever. Usually there is some problem that came up, but they decided to not tell me.

But I'm used to it by now, so no worries for me really. I'm just gonna keep trying and giving my all as I can.
I noticed! I checked out tour website and there was a lot of cool stuff on there! Don't be discouraged, everyone is noticed in there own way. I feel really unnoticed for my writing on my devArt. No one really visits my page and if they do they don't comment I feel I am a decent writer, but if people don't give me feedback how am I supposed to get better? Tis the struggle of every artist my friend
