Believe it or not I am typing on a dell latitude d830 right now!! It is my teachers, I am the class tech and I am the only one he trusts to use it. My school has a fleet of latitude d520's for the school comp admins. My teach is an admin so he gets one. It is rather large but fast quiet and somewhat...

Alrighty, - Creative desktop computer from late 90's, pentium 2 - Emachines desktop computer from early 200's, intel celeron - Sharp print-out calculator from mid 90's - Dell Latitude CPx laptop, Pentium 3 750mhz early 2000's -IBM Thinkpad 1300 i (on which I am typing this) Pentium 3 700mhz. early 2...

My thinkpads are not worth enough to lock them up.
Then again if I was a thief I would just be too lazy and say "to hell with this!", then proceed to fall asleep in the lazy boy.

I think " notebookatronic is a little long, but I like the "mobile" one. It seems to make it easier for some of these people who no absolutely nothing about computers. ( and what thry are made of.) How this? - Intel Mobile 2008 - Intel Stationary 2008 - Intel Performance 2008 - Intel Family 2008 - I...

I know exactly what you mean gator!!! I get really confused.
They should just pick a name and stick with it!

Yeah, I guess your sorta right. I just can't get used to them!
I just detest them, I don't know why. I am just SOOOO used to normal screens that I am very reluctant to change over.

Dim is an understatement. :roll: I have no idea :??: how this guy runs a business. That was sad. :cry: This guy honestly needs help! :help: I heard this on the 6 o' clock news tonight: " In local news, the whole ebay community got together today to hold a Thank You ceremony for Mr. Ray Kawakami. Mr....

That is a very odd and long story that you would've never have guessed. Thanks for the information! I have always wanted to know how it was named.

Cool

I am kinda on Georges side. I try to get used to them by using my teachers Dell Latitude D830, but I just can't. Half the pages are only half the screen, it is very wide and therefore rather heavy, The screen seems to be very cheap since that is what they are going for here, that's thier gig for usi...

I live in a subdivision... so I am **** out of luck! Nobody I know has a field, and my parents have a Toyota Corolla and a Toyota Echo.

I would find it VERY hard to live without a stard aspect ratio screen. (4:3)

I am STRONGLY against widescreens. I would prefer a 14.1 or 13.3 standard. That is what I am used to, I would find it very very difficult to function with a widescreen.

STANDARD SCREEN ALL THE WAY!!!!!

Honestly!!! That's pretty bad! That guy needs to do some serious research on TP's before putting up a completely false description.

I like that one joester! The car hood must have been fun! I could never get that by my parents to do that!

I do like all your technology. I also noticed your left handed like me!

My school server blocks ebay! Do you know of a way around it? (ie. proxy or something)

Nobody could have thought of a better idea than that! I love it.

Yes... I'm pretty sure.

That is so cool! I like it! But we all thought you would of thought of it first

Are temps really that hot and that cold!

To tifflivemb2: I like that saying! And don't worry! I don't even have a snowblower! I shovel 2 driveways a day! But I get paid $300 a winter for one of them so it is not that bad.

Skiing is fun! Have you ever been to Blue Mountain? Because next to Blue Mountain is Wasaga Beach! (where I live!)

Blue Mountain is pretty good for skiing. (and downhill biking in the summer! )

K2jsv: Very true.Christmas. ( spare other religeons) would not be the same without snow. ( like last year in Wasaga Beach, it sucked pretty bad!)

RealBlackStuff: IRELAND!!! You are soooo Lucky!

As in the you tube viseo up there, I don't like Toshiba and I never did. What a craptop. Waaaaay :shock: to much flex and cheapiness in my eyes. I do infact LOVE the x300. The docking port thing doen't bother me at all. ( I'm not a business man so I don't need a docking station.) I do understand why...

I agree.. and yes those are the temps you listed are bang on.

Have fun bieng able to live in the solomon Islands.

I could live there no problem!!

The powerbook reminds me of one I saw on ebay, is that where you got that one... or is it just me.

Sweet! I'm in the same boat as you!

You do have a vaid point Paul Unger. There would be nothing to look foreward to if there were no seasons. Winter is not the harbinger of death (if I even spelled harbinger right ) Or anything like that, but I do prefer summer over winter.

By the way, where is solomon islands?

Im not trying to be insulting (he he)

I should upgrade aswell, im in trhe same situation as you are!!

I have 2 thinkpads my 770X and 1300i. ( I mostly use my 1300i since it is newer and does not have a broken LCD) The 1300i only has pentium 3 700mhz. I suck.

I suppose most folks would laugh at what passes for winter in Southern California. I've lived places such as Detroit, so I know what winter can bring. But winter here isn't always pleasant. I spend my weekends out on the bicycle, and winter here means rain. I've already lost a few weekend rainout d...
