New Laptop!
liamcadhain:
Well wear KM, the laptop looks pretty sweet. I'm still on my trusty Inspiron 1545 (have it for nearly 2 years now mind you) and it still does the job for all my web browsing, word processing, programming and low spec gaming needs. It's basically a college laptop and it should do for the remaining few years I have left there. Overheats like mad though, lol
major:
Always kinda wanted a HP Envy series. A buddy who has a HP laptop overheats all the time in-game, but its one of the cheap 17" crappy ones, made for just watching movies not gaming 5 hours straight.
My Asus has worked like a dream, even though I haven't turned it on in like 2 months. But worked fine when I used it.

My main computer is a Dell Studio 1737 laptop. It has been functioning well for quite a while, but my old dell inspiron was fast as hell, but melted...literally. My graphics card ran on idle at about 100 degrees Celsius. They finally gave me a studio book after i bugged them 3 times and my graphics card overheated 3 times...lol. Damn dells. This one has been going strong for 3 years though. Hopefully it doesn't turn into SSL's hp. lol
It isn't that great...but it has lasted pretty long:
Core 2 duo 2.0 ghz
4gb ram
256mb ati mobility hd radeon 3650
1920x1080 17 inch display
150gb hard drive
not the greatest..but it works..and I am using it right now. I use it for anything and everything. It is the only computer I have.
kraid:
I have Acer Aspire 5742G with:
Intel i5-460M
4GB DDR3 RAM
nVidea GeForce GT 420M
15.6'' LED-LCD display
750GB HDD
working good so far.
Only issue is that my 3D app. sometimes won't update the 3D viewport in realtime, till i minimized the app. and maximized it again.
killermonkey:
Finally got my hands on the new laptop. It's amazing!
I just chewed through 1 hour of civ 5 an still have 60% battery left. Graphics on medium left no hiccups or slow downs. Temp remained relatively low :-)
going to setup my development environment in the next two days, till then it's time to rule the world!
