jam jam laptop (MTS super edit: Bad WoW)

[Artemus]

Yep, I be postin' this from my laptop now. Hand-me-down Sony Vaio, but damn if it ain't sweet.

EDIT: Okay, the card and the drivers are all fine. Apparently it's something in the game itself, what with corrupted textures or some such. Any other World of Warcraft players have this problem/a solution?

[Chris]

Paul, go die, you with you're laptop.
What next? A lifetime supply of chocolate?






I say this because I've wanted a latop since I discovered their existence in 2nd grade.

[Artemus]

This was a birthday present.

Now go play with your chibi avatar.

[Spawz/NPC]

Jam Jam Laptop?

Wonder what THOSE steps would be like.

oh i hate myself

[Chris]

Oh yeah, but you're birthday was quite a while ago.

You're just jealous of my indifference.
Not that I care.

[Artemus]

Of course. Just keep telling yourself that.

[midopa]

Congrats. I been thinkin'bout getting a laptop myself. As much as I dislike them, it's becoming more and more obvious I'll have to get one for my major/lifestyle (none).

<smallChitChat>So how've you been? You recover from that nasty accident?</smallChitChat>

[ghandi]

yes a laptop is what I've been needing.... not to mention a tablet

[Artemus]

Yeah, I'm more or less physically all right. Job situation's been wonky lately, but I've still got a few days with my employer as well as potential work from the nearby Subway.

[Seph]

I recently got a Dell Inspiron 600. Very nice, and plays CoH.

[Artemus]

The newer Dell notebooks are pretty damn sweet.

OKAY SO ANYWAY I need to get some hook-ups for virus scanners and such. The McAfee I have on here is a trial version. Anyone have any ideas? Freeware is preferred.

I first read that as "freeware is girlfriend."

[Eric]

I gave away my laptop to my sister because hers was a piece of crap Windows ME-era Toshiba and its hard drive died. (Replacing the hard drive would have cost more than the entire machine was worth, so . . .)

[Housekeeper (loljanitor) Faddy]

I thought about a laptop, but I never personally cared for them. I'm usually at home anyway



They are like flatscreen monitors. They aren't heavy and don't hurt like hell when you peg them at someone. Give me a CRT monitor anyday. I'll kick ass with it.


I'll still get one some day though. For a client's house. I was going to say 'On the road', but that's blasphemy, coming from my face.

[Seph]

CRTs are the shit, no matter how much they try to shove LCDs down my throat.

[突貫 (Tokkan)]

Cathode Ray Tube > Liquid Crystal Display

[Artemus]

So, it'd seem the graphical crap-ups are due to my computer having a shared hard drive. Apparently when the video card's power is dispersed between the two it makes for some shitty rendering. Anyone have any remedies? Matrixx keeps saying to merge them.

[Matsrik]

NOTE: I don't know how you do that.
