Gotta love a flatmate with money and connections! He bought a desktop! Yay!
So I'm back on line. Not sure if the digial art flow will be allowed on here. It only has 512mb ram 140 HD space. pttthhh Everything I saved and WIP is on the laptops HD T_T. Which Ari is going to take out and convert to an external HD for only 60 bucks. woop.
Two things happened in one day. First the net crashed, called up, turns out we have been sending spam to a bunch of people with our email address that is given to you when you join an internet company. we don't have ANYONE on our contact list and we NEVER use it. They blocked it saying that we should scan our computer for a virus that is probably causing this but he didn't forget to mention that if we're caught doing it again our account gets deleted. As if we're doing this knowingly. Ass holes. New Zealand internet and companies are shit. They CHARGE you band width. So retarded.
Our laptop. It's 3 years old, refurbished. Gambit, our cat, chewed straight through the charger cable(WHILE IT WAS IN USE) 4-5 months ago. Ari fixed it no prob. A month ago the little charger outlet on the laptop has been sliding in tot he point where we had to have the cord wrapped around in some type of puzzle maze shit to keep it charged. When the net crashed we had to moved the laptop. Moved it, charger cable shorted out and outlet in the back has gone too far in. So, it will cost 180 to fix the outlet and 60+ to replace the charger cable.
We were planning on buying a new laptop when we came back to the states but looks like its sooner. The new laptop will arrive in a few weeks so I won't be back until then. I will kind of but I won't. Ari logging me into the college computers and a lot of things are blocked. I can't even go on FA because you fur fags are dirty. lol Anyway, just thought I'd let everyone know.
This sucks. I have been reading like a horny librarian. Readers out there should check out Stephen Hunt. <3
Ari's laptop is breaking down. It's around 3 years old and when I bought it for him it was refurbished. The plug thing in back is sliding in so it won't charge properly. We have it set up so that we can't move it from this one spot where the cord has wrapped around it twice. It's crazy. The charger as well is failing because of a certain feline that chewed it right through. Ari rewired it but you know how it is. That and the fact that it's so slow now and Ari knows enough to make it unslow but it doesn't look like there is anything left to do. He needs it for college but we're not sure how much longer it's going to last.
We are not sure if we should just go have it fixed or start looking for a new one. We don't care if it's a laptop or a desktop. We just need something thats cheap and can put up with us. Any ideas? I use to know the website where I got Ari's and they had some really nice payment plans but I can't remember. So does anyone out there have a few suggestions on where to look? We really can not afford something like this but we would like to look around and see what kind of payments we could make.
