lappie update

Just got a call from ben's nurse that there is no hope for Ben. It appears that they cannot find a replacement motherboard for Ben because Ben is an old timer. So no choice la, absolutely must buy a new computer.

Now i'm thinking again, is it really worth all the effort getting a new Dell with windows vista, or windows xp? Especially as windows 7, vista's replacement will (hopefully) be released in 2010. Windows 7 promises to be the next windows xp in terms of reliability and security but we'll have to wait and see. Is it really worth the effort getting a PC that will become absolutely useless in another 4years? If it breaks down, or breaks apart which ever comes first then i cannot find any parts for it to prolong its life. Is it really worth it?

I prepared to send an email to the big guy and tell him i need a new lappie but decided against it. Money is such an issue with him and i don't want any more trouble with him. So i guess i'll have to tahan until next sem lo. Boo hoo hoo.
