Bad news, everyone · 4:28pm Mar 8th, 2014
As muh as I hate to say it, this peice of crap dino of a computer has had yet another system-crippling virus attack. As a result, the damn thing will not even boot up. So, obviously, i wont be able to get anything done until i get this shitstorm sorted out.
(my computer is actually a laptop, but you get the idea.)
However, I do have a touch of good news. First and foremost, Chapter 2 of L4D 2 is going up today as scheduled, so hope you guys enjoy it.
secondly, due to my current computer's bullshittiness, I have ordered a brand-spanking-new, untra desktop that will solve ALL my current issues. (at least, it damn well better. thing cost over $1K)
Hope you guys have a better time than i currently am, and hope to see you soon.

Sorry for your loss. But we all saw it coming.
1907254 true. all the more reason i'm glad that'll all change in a week.
1907267 I would get Microsoft Security Essentials. It's been protecting mine for about 5 years now.
That sucks, dood. I'm trying to save up $2500 for a Razer Blade Pro laptop. Expensive as hell, but hey, its an amazing gaming laptop with a touchscreen mouspad. Built for playing hard (bow chicka bow wow) and working hard, dood.
1907272 how much, and where can i get it?
1907305 best part,
ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fstatic3.fjcdn.com%2Fcomments%2Ffree%2Bdoom%2B_5f8409628638734b2bdc1fdccddae744.jpg&t=537&c=C5LxruTfiiKE4A
And here is the Download Site. Here ya are.
1907273 No laptop is good for gaming honestly. And at $2500, I feel the only thing you will get is a bunch of bloatware. Stick with a PC it's the only way to game. Building your own is way cheaper and very easy. Laptops will always run way too hot when gaming and most are packed with a lot of useless bloatware.
1907494
most, but not all. if you want, you can check out razor 's stuff on "razerzone.com"
Razer is way better than Alienware, imo.
that was a pretty dayum acurate video
1907508 That's because Alienware was bought out by Dell. And I still wouldn't have a laptop for my preferred gaming platform. They always run hot unless you buy the really bulky ones (talking ASUS here), and even then they still tend to overheat if you don't have a cooling stand for them.
1907305 Kaspersky's Pretty amazing, expecially for the price.
I can't believe that my friend Applesaws helped you find a pc
thats so cool
1909191 stalker alert!
but srsly tho. yea, he was a huge help, and a good pal.
Get a Mac.
Or just erase everything and use Linux. That works too.
1908573
good point.
1908573 That, and hardware for gaming uses more power. Gaming laptops use up their batteries quickly, and it kinda defeats the purpose of a laptop in my opinion if you can't have it last anywhere without outlets.
1907267 less than 1k http://www.walmart.com/ip/24727258?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227000000000&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=41833582510&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=19880599990&veh=sem
1910821 i ordered a coustom one, so it only makes sense that it would be more expensive (considering the parts i selected)
1910949 What did you get? And where did you get it from?
1910968 i ordered a coustom built IBUYPOWER deaktop from Walmart
1911043 Heh... a custom build from Walmart? Well... hope it works for you.
1911135 well its the only thing my parents and i could agree on. :T
1911242 Ah still living at home eh? Heh... Don't worry! I am sure it will be a decent machine. What are the specs?
1911856 well, since i dont exactly have a computer to check, i'll just try to lst what i remember.
simple chassis (red)
intel core i5-4430 (if i'm not mistaken)
4 x 2GB = 8GB DDR3-1333 memory sticks
either a 1tb or 2tb hard drive
NVIDIA GTX 760 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
dvd player
windows 7 ultimate (i'm going with a system that i know)
red led fan
microsoft office 2010
and i'm gonna buy keyboard mouse and stuff individually.
i think thats about it, but i 'may' be a little off.
and in terms of living at home, lets just say that moving out is near impossible right now. its complicated. :\
1911906 No problem living at home. Was just saying. And your new PC sounds pretty nice! Good luck with it!
1912860 yea, i figured. still felt like sayin it tho
And Danke Shön about the computer. i hope it does well too.
maybe now i'll be able to write without risk of loosing all my progress!
1912890 Google Docs for the win bud. Never again loose any progress with its auto save cloud storage and constant updates.
1913757 well, i would, but it never worked on my old computer. it always made the browser freeze up indefinitely.
....all the more reason to look forward to the new computer.
