So, I spent all day talking to Bloodstar and now I have an iBook G4 on the way in the mail. Guys, don't talk to Bloodstar if you don't want to end up making Apple purchases.

I totally don't mind, though, because this means I can hang out at Starbucks and not lug around this totally clunky and embarrassing and so-not-stylish Toshiba laptop.

I talk to him, and I've so far resisted the power of the Church of Apple

I however, have failed.

Until you factor in the fact that I am dirt poor for even a used PowerPC. Hell, even a used PC with a Mac OS on it is too pricey for me.

It's really the hardware, but still.

Just bought my girlfriend Ecco Jr. on Steam. It was the first game she ever played.

...Wha? First game ever?!?

She hasn't even played something like Bejeweled or Farmville or anything?

Not-so-stylish? Your laptop would look like a masterpiece of engineering next to my 15-year-old Compaq.

Speaking of, I need a new belt for its floppy drive. Rubber bands don't work...

Oh, now that sounds super-retro.

Do you have any pics of your lovely machine? I'd love to see them.

Lol, my old 512MB can only take around 13 minutes of 720x480 video, or 122 14.1MP images

I think I got this old 512MB card back around 2005 or so...

Talking to your wife during "that time of the month" is like trying to defuse a nuclear bomb with only 5 seconds remaining. One wrong move and everything blows up.

Sorry, I should have added a smiley to my post. I knew what the joke was but my post did not make that clear.

I do now.

It's a Compaq LTE Lite 4/25 E. That circular thing on the side of the screen is the trackball. The buttons are on the back of the screen.

The keyboard stopped working today, and it looks like it's finally falling apart from old age. I guess I don't need a new belt for the floppy drive anymore.

That's pretty awesome nonetheless- the trackpad/button combo is interesting, and the keyboard actually looks a lot more robust than a modern laptop.

Wow, now that's one cool laptop. It kind of looks like half a NES. I love the trackball.

My iBook is arriving on Monday and today someone asked me what I'm going to name it. The name I settled with was "Summerfree".

Well, this is not good. :| My body temperature is at 94.9F ... I do feel very cold (and I've shivered occasionally) but I can't believe it's that serious

Try taking the temperature again to see if it's actually right. 94.9Β° shouldn't really be that bad but if you're worried you could ask a doctor. If anything it's probably some minor virus.
