annabtgI got a new laptop yesterday! :DD
After my CD/DVD reader broke on the other one (I can't remember if I've already mentioned that or not), it was the final straw. It already had a burnt out battery, a non-working touchpad, a faulty graphics card and no way to be fixed without paying at least half its price again.
My new laptop is a Turbo-XSirius Sirus Duo with excellent qualifications. And, in case you're interested, Windows Vista are compatible with the Sims 2. I checked it myself at the store before agreeing to buy the laptop. :P
The only downside is that it didn't come with any programs preinstalled. I have no Office! And I can't read my fics! :SSSS D'you guys know if there's a program I can download that will read .doc files? If not, well, I suppose I can get Office somewhere...
Oh, I got a webcam, too. Only I don't know how much I'll be using it because when I'm online I'm usually in my pyjamas, hair unbrushed, looking a mess. :P You might be amused at how I got it, though...
(Dad and I are in the store; I'm on their test subject-computer installing the Sims 2, Dad is looking around.)
Dad: *points to a laptop's screen* Hey, Anna, look! It's me!
Me: *looks* Ah, yeah, I know. It's got a webcam. *points* This thing here.
Dad: Cool, isn't it?
Me: Sure.
Dad: Is it expensive?
Me: Nah... around 30 euros.
Dad: Do you want one?
Me: *hides big grin* Sure.
Back to installing programs/transferring files etc..
See ya,
Anna.
