I Did It!!!

Finally bought a computer.After having Webtv for 3(yes 3)years,I took some mod money and got a sony VAIO with a flat panel screen and a cable modem.WOW ,what a difference.It is like going from a yugo to a Modded Lightning.I will be borrowing my sisters digital camera and posting pictures of the beast soon.This is cool and it only took 36 years to get one.

Congrats! & Good Luck...

I bought a Vaio (RX560) back in October and have had to send it back to have the hard drive replaced twice already. Then just last week my flat panel monitor (SDM M51) crapped out so now I'm using my old one.

Hope you have better luck than I have had...

I got the RX650 vaio. I guess it is just like our trucks.Some are good and some have problems.I hope I got a good one,I am going to DYNO it to tomorrow.Looking for 2 billion rwgigabites.I just hope I do not blow a capacitor .I heard they can only take 1.8 billion.Something about a faulty stock motherboard.If only they upgraded to the manley motherboard everything would be all right.LOL

Vinnie,
Congrats on your new computer. Just stay out of those **** sites. It's too hard to get rid of all the evidence.

Good for you Vinnie! Get you some virus protection if you don't already have it. Viruses can get real ugly.

A word to the wise. Dont' wait, do it today. I sound like a car commercial
