Post by: Teroniss on December 26, 2006, 05:03:32 PM
Wooo, yay Christmas, and yay new computer. I finally get to trade out my crappy old 1.8ghz computer for a brand new 3.2ghz one. eeeee, I can finally play Oblivion, and Dark Crusade, and Neverwinter Nights 2, etc. Its an eMachines desktop with 3.2ghz Pentium 4, 1gb of RAM and 160gb Harddrive. Im happyhappyhappy. *Goes back to playing Oblivion now*

new part smell is way better. new computer smell is overrated. >.> Have fun, even though it's an eMachines. If it's got one of those round power buttons with the glowing ring, go easy on it.

New computer?

Bah, Humbug!

New parts are nice, but with a new computer you have to readjust all the settings that you personalized over time.
>:3 Have fun doing that. :mwaha

Congrats. ;3

Y'know, if you new computer smells, then it's probably broken.  :giggle Seriously, though, congrats.

That's why you copy all your stuff from your old HDD to the new one.

Or if you're good at that, and you've got an OS that doesn't mind you doing so, replace the old with the new and have the new one sitting in as bonus space.

That's also an option, but opening up the case voids the warranty. :P
