I have only a quarter tank of gas, so I'll stop to fill it up on the way home from work today.

I think I'll buy a bottle of Mountain Dew too.

Actually, after I heards the news, I was planning on hunting you down so I could throw joysticks and trackballs at you.  Why not just build a single stick cp instead?  Something like this: http://www.massystems.com/PS-NOVA.jpg

Why on earth are you overpaying so much for an alienware laptop?  Totally not worth it IMHO.  Get a sager... they build alienware's systems anyway IIRC and are much cheaper.  Or a new Dell XPS which game great and are rock solid.  Or get an Athlon64 Emachines lappy, and upgrade the ram and cpu for wayyyy less than what you'd pay for an Alienware.

Of course, if you're 16, you prolly want a freaky color and that cutesy little alien head ;)  It's your money.
first off your and idiot

Not sure of Floyd10 / James St James / etc reason, but the fact that the alienwares upgradable graphics module is pretty sweet. In theory (if alienwae doesn't change things) you could upgrade your graphics core whever you want... 1 year from now or 3 years from now or every year (rich kid). and still keep the same lappy.

I agree that they are overpriced laptops that use high end parts and sport the bling bling that today's kids think are da shiznit but there are some good aspects to owning one (I don't).

just some additional perspective and a shamless attempt to use this thread to bolster my post count some more.

That's probably a good place to go for that.  Either there or Nashville.  That place is hopping with musicians because of all the recording studios there.  Again, good luck, my friend.

FYI Floyd, if you want a laptop that has a battery that last longer than one hour i wouldn't bother with the Area 51.  Yeah its super powerful and stuff, but it weighs 11 pounds and the battery life sucks horribly.  Look for a laptop with a fast Pentium M in it if I were you.

Google Fruit?  What's that taste like?  Kinda like chicken?

Why not make your own laptop?  Check out MaximumPC's rig of the month area to see what's possible...and build on that.

FWIW, I would hold out on that Alienware deal unless they throw in a free mouse pad too  ;) or at least a coffee mug  :P

Nothing wrong with waiting on tables.  Between my house and classic car hobby, the extra 4 grand a year I get for waitering 2-3 Saturdays a month comes in handy.

In college I kept thinking, after I graduate I'm going to get a 'real' job, and I thought waiting tables was beneath me.  After 5 years of working a 'real job', I realize it's just a job.  

Now I'd happily shovel crap 8 hours a day if it paid enough.

Ok guys, I didn't mean to offend.  My point in case was that musicians tend to work odd jobs and stuff to get by, ya know the whole Jewel thing "I was living in my car, working odd jobs performing on the weekends".  I'm a fellow musician myself so I know how it is.  If you can cut it in that type of buisiness I have all the respect in the world for you.  I wish I could be doing it for a living instead of doing the whole 9:00 - 5:00 deal.

Honestly laptops can be more of a bother than they are worth but I have found that if people are set on them they there is no converting them.  Try searching for laptop barebones or laptop shells that can sometimes give you some hits, the other option would be to get a dead laptop off ebay and gut it much like you would a dead arcade cab.  But honestly if money is your problem then build a nice desktop for less money with more power.

~Mas

P.S. Alienwares are really overpriced.

Despite my huge post count, I've never made a shameless post to boost it. (Well maybe once... Just now.)

I figure I've already talked about almost everything there is to talk about on this website. Everything else is sort of deja vu.

However, I've got a garage full of projects coming down the pipeline so expect the posts to be flying again soon. (Not like anybody cares.)

I realize this is a totally random post, but I figured this was an appropriate thread for such rambling. Ok, I'm done now.

I'm thinking there should be a poll on top of both of these threads - only three choices:  1)Sorry, Guys I is worth keeping atop the list  2)Sorry, Guys II is worth keeping atop the list  3)Sorry, Guys we can't keep splitting our valuable time between these threads, pick one so that "It's ALIVE master, It's ALIVE!"

Or do what I do and post to both in case no one read it in that thread.   ;)

Everybody with me

James James he's our man if he can't do it  





somebody else will...meh  :-X

HA!  You obviously have missed the true value in this thread:  to give our lives meaning and show just how many inane and random ramblings we have to put forth, thereby saving our real-life compatriots from listening to them and casting doubt upon our sanity!  FOOL!  

Wait...mebbe you have a point...meh

Chalk up one more post for me  ;)

James, you disappoint me.   :'(  Have you not learned to kick someone when they're down?  Go hug a tree/lick a frog/save a whale, ya hippy long-hair!

You don't deserve to wear the moniker James StJames Jr  ;)


I'm done...I had to do those last few, otherwise it would have eaten at me for not following the general spirit, but I'm gonna do my part to let this die away.

James, thanks for the opportunity to be stupid for reasons OTHER than the normal ones I choose.  My wife appreciates you giving me an outlet.  I'm gonna go make her question those vows she made that one day!

First step would be to put two or three rational, on topic thoughts together in some sort of logical order...from there the world's your oyster!

But seriously, wasn't this thread something to do with military intelligence leaks? Or honda civcs?  I think the OP should delete his post, so the true meaning can be lost in arcadecontrol lore.... this thread's length should also exceed that of any of the token design threads.

JAMES!  LOOKIT!  You DO have the power!  You mind-pushed missioncontrol to search out a picture of you to post here to show his allegiance to you!  You're on your way to world domination!  As soon as you get that computer to help you with all your evil plans, you'll be stoppable...woops, UN stoppable.  My bad.  WAIT!  I shouldn't be explaining myself to YOU!  D@#N YOU TO #3LL JAMES ST JAMES!
You’re always in control of your behavior. Sometimes you just control yourself
in ways that you later wish you hadn’t
