spiderwomanYep, last evening I bought myself a new desktop! I had been thinking about getting one for a little while now but didn't think I'd be getting it so soon. But certain circumstances came together so that I just could't pass up the deal. Here's what happened...My mom phoned me up Sunday night, and starts to tell me how something bad happened. I get a little worried, but then learn that their house was hit by lightning, and it shorted out a few of their larger electronics, like their television and the old desktop I'd given them. Then my mom mentions that my father is thinking of buying her a laptop.
I tell her, wait a minute, take mine, I've been thinking of buying a desktop for a while now. Of course, I didn't think I'd be buying it so quickly haha... literally the next day. The big reason why I hadn't bought a desktop yet was because, other than wanting one to be able to play video games, my laptop was perfectly fine. I actually really like it. So why go out and buy a new computer when the one I have isn't even 2 years old yet, right?
But now that I'll be giving it to my mother, it's a reason for me to buy this new one. And oh what an amazing, wonderful new one it is. I got a Dell, an Inspirion 545. It has 8GB of ram, 1TB hard drive,Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200, and I got a 24" flatscreen monitor. *drools* Epic monitor is epic. I cannot wait to get it home and buy some video games and just play to my little hearts content. Oh yes.
The best part is I got a really good deal on it too... I only paid $1158, with taxes. I was like $500 off the usual price they sell it for. I am a very happy camper, oh yes.
Anyway, I ought to be doing more work. Luckily, lunch is soon, and I'm meeting my friend Gabby for some Thai at the Green Papaya!
Cheers!
