Help my new laptop to not suck!

Postby Xaston » Mon Aug 06, 2007 11:49 pm

I just bought a brand spanking new Sony Vaio.

It has Windows Vista which is tilting me.

It has a bunch of stupid useless programs that I have no interest in whatsoever.

All sorta of bullshit keeps popping up that is tilting me.

Is there some sort of list of programs I should keep so I can get rid off all this unnecesary stuff?

GOD I AM ON SUCH TECHNO-TILT RIGHT NOW.
Boy, you got me confused with a man who repeats himself.

You know, you probably could've gotten a lighter, more simple, easier to use laptop with none of this unnecessary fancy shit, for like, half the price?
Poker is silly.

It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.

Im running vista. Its meh no different really than xp for me.

I turned off that goddam security thing that pops up every time PT starts up. That thing was definitely tilting me.

I also got rid of that google toolbar thing. Super annoying.

The search feature in the start menu is cool, i like that.

Otherwise everything works the same.

End up with a Dell, a fistful of cash and few of these problems

As played, sell Sony Gaio, buy Dell
