Off visiting Candy Cave, be right back.

I don't mind my vista. I have a sony laptop and it comes with me everywhere since I'm in college, onenote is a lifesaver! My old sony took a tumbledown the stairs with me. (Kady, you know me, coordinated I am not) and while I escaped with just some bruising, the poor thing's screen cracked. Sony sent someone to my house with a new screen. The guy installed it on my kitchen island and didn't charge me a cent, so I am hooked now. I probably would have bought a mac by now if someone weren't shoving them down my throat everywhere I turned. In the mac store, the guy is going on about the superiority of the mac, and I point at the huge line in the back for the genius bar and say "OK, so what are they here for?" The salesman actually got mad and walked off! Psh, I'm not driving to Norfolk every time I need something fixed...

:teehee: Sorry about your fall down the stairs.. had to laugh picturing that though..

Sony is on my list as well, I've heard good things about them. I know what you mean about people trying to shove Mac down your throat though (not anyone on here, don't worry!). My brother wants one, just for the sake of saying 'I have a Mac'. I'm trying to be realistic and say 'Do I really need a Mac?'

Well, I got one! I got an HP, this one.

So far I really like it. It is SO much faster than my Dell. And the webcam that comes on it is much clearer than the one I had, so that's made things much nicer for Eric & I when we're talking. Not really having any issues with Vista so far, so hopefully that'll continue! All in all I'm very happy, especially because I got the Best Buy credit card that's 18 months no interest! :clap:
