I want a laptop now

    Hi all,

    so its just after 10pm and I’m surfing for a laptop from my brother PC. I have been wanting a laptop for sometime now and there is always something that comes up to swallow my cash. This time I had the money and something did come up and takes half.

    Now I’m left with the question of whether to take the laptop or wait a few more months and get a better one as I hope to have more cash. I would love to wait, but I have been waiting for over a year and my patience is running out.

    Sounds funny, but I’m going crazy working in these conditions. Slow connection and no freedom, I want to be mobile and then I would be able to post more.

    So many to choose from with so many different specs. I’m in IT, so this should be easy for me, but my cash flow is bleeding me dry. I will have to see what I can come up with, I still have to save up for my holiday in December. We are going on a ship cruise, will go into detail later.

    My laptop minimums:

    • decent size hard drive, something from 150gb and up
    • at least 2048mb memory
    • 15″ screen
    • Intel Core 2 Duo
    • Decent graphics

    I’m feeling very tired all of a sudden and think I’m going to bed. Enjoy your evening and weekend.

    Don’t you come across any offers that let you purchase the laptop by paying in interest free monthly installments? I did! Read about it at my blog here
