Marc's Bachelor Party Weekend
As with all things involving a bunch of city folk going out of town for a weekend full of good ole' southern hillbilly fun...and Cracker Barrel, what happened in Tennessee stays in Tennessee. All I'll say is that an excruciating painful bad knee (much thanks for Naproxen), a torn contact lens, and a World of Warcraft podcast that just wouldn't end couldn't ruin the good times I had...

In With the New
After being frustratingly, errr, frustrated, I have finally upgraded my what was once called a (two finger quotes) laptop (two finger quotes) - then called a (two finger quotes) notebook (two finger quotes) - now called a (two finger quotes) (one finger quote) desktop replacement (one finger quote) (two finger quotes). After checking out the specs, you'll find out that the 2007 whatchamacallit is so rightly named since it definitely could replace a lot of PC's that are now sooooo XP.
Da Specs:
-Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 (2.00GHz, 4MB L2 Cache, 667 MHz FSB)
-Memory: 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
-Storage: 250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
-Display: 17-inch HD-quality widescreen
-Video card: 256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS
-Sound card: Sound Blaster Audigy HD
-Media drive: 8x CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) with dual-layer DVD+R write capability
-Network card: Integrated Wireless-N
It's also Vista compliant (scores 4.5 out of 5.9 on the Vista rankings), but more importantly WoW-mobile ready. Anyone got a subscription card?
