Sylv is here….

Posted by: Sylvia Giacinta In: day by day| me

If you guys have been wondering why the hell can I still be online, blogging this, buzzing you (it might just be you) on MSN/YM, or other internet-ty things despite my loss of that stupid A**r laptop, fret not! It’s not Sylv’s ghost! Nor my identity has been compromised like my credit card number on PayPal by some immoral phishers. (ed’s note : true story)

The reason is.. My lovely school has given me a laptop loan. Short term, just for two weeks. But it’s better than none.

It’s not a good-looking laptop, i can tell. Scratches on the cover.. Broken latch.. Stylus (oh it’s a tablet pc anyway) that doesn’t work.. Well I can’t use it as a normal tablet pc, that’s the whole point. I can’t draw or write a note on the screen. And it only have 2 usb ports. That means I can only attach my USB mouse (this laptop’s touchpad doesn’t have the scroll function, unlike my A**R) and one external disk. Be it my external hard drive or my flashdisk. Yah. That explains all.

But, well, it’s not that bad either. It’s not as heavy as my A**r. It doesn’t get hot easily (unlike my A**r). Its battery is quite long-lasting. The charger is quite light.

I haven’t heard from my A**r since I sent him to the “hospital”. The “doctor” said it would take 3 days, minimal. I’ve sent him since Monday and haven’t heard about him ever since. Guess his disease is very bad. >_<

After he’s healed, what should I do? Back with that A**r.. Sigh…

I really want a new laptop. Care to buy me one? Currently I’m quite attracted to VAIOs, as seen below :

I am going to migrate to a Mac soon. Just trying to figure out what software I can use.

The reports I have received is that Vista’s performance is BAD with the exception of file transfer. Recommendation are to stick with XP.
