Laptop for £600

Hi,

PC user. IT developer, Multimedia User (video / images /audio) gamer.

Spent £600 on a LAPTOP with enough specs for ALL the above and very well.

May not be as decent as a high end mac. But does all I need and i need a lot!

I'd love to use macs.... but only because i hove low self esteem and want to be cool, but i just can't afford it.

PS - just added more ram..... easy

PPS - may get another graphics card next year.... easy

PPPS - may add more hard drive... easy

PPPPS - may want to download loads of freeware / shareware... easy

PPPPPS - may need some virus protection.... easy (updates each day and free)

PPPPPPS - may buy a cool looking case... but i'm still not as cool as a mac.. i may go and hang myself

PPPPPPPPSSSSSS - sorry, i'm running vista ultimate, have been for 18 months, never crashed, still really quick, umm...... i like it

(so uncool so uncool so uncool)

Yawn.....

Is anyone else getting bored of this argument.... i thought the Reg was cutting edge and tongue in cheek - this certainly isn't...

old hat, boring, high horse crud

Come on really.... imagine it... they flick the switch and kerpluk... shhllooooooppp... we all get sucked down the proverbial plughole.

Would be fantastic.... at least we'd all be there at the end. It'd be like not missing the greatest ever party.
