I once stabbed through my hand with a screwdriver. That hurt aswell
[QUOTE=Chubbs;36159703]How can you not tell what keys you're hitting if you can touch type?[/QUOTE]
It's mostly the function keys. That's the only area I had an issue with and it was because I am retarded. :v:
And I'm not entirely sure if what I can do is considered touch typing.

I had a nice fat sliver of wood go all the way through my hand once, it did not feel good.
Guess what I got!

Obligatory "post pics pl0x"
so I'm building a new computer and instead of ordering everything at once i'm order everything piece by piece and waiting for deals to pop up on stuff. I'v already saved a ton of money compared to my 1st draft "ideal" build I guess, same specs, everything. Saved around 200 bucks so far opposed to the original 1400 the build originally cost.
So far I got a i5 3570k for 180, an asus p8z77-v lk for 110, an optical drive for 10, a 120 gb ssd for 80, and a coolermaster v8 for 40. Im about to order an 0cz 750w psu for 70.
after that, all i need is a corsair 650d, although i doubt that's going down in price, same with the gtx 670, and 16 gb of ram.

Well, can you think of any other reason why I'd be running Internet Explorer? I'm just messing around a bit before I wipe and reinstall - there's a shit-ton of bloatware on this right now.

I don't see why you can't take pics with, like, a camera
And then upload them with another PC :v:

Don't have a camera, would have to use my phone and it's a pain in five asses to get images off it.

This just hurts. I know you are into scissor/chiclet keyboards, but you are bottoming those keys really hard. You shouldn't use this type.

Haven't decided yet. Might re-use Farore, name of my last laptop. Also considering Midna (since it's black and crazy).
And yes, the other members of the family are Nayru (shitbox) and Ganon (Mac Pro), with Din being off at the folk's house.
WHY YES I AM A ZELDA FAN HOW CAN YOU TELL?
am I the only person that just sticks with Sam-PC or Sam-Laptop (the default ones after you've made a user account)?
What the fuck? Why is it saying I need 6 DVDs to make a recovery disc?
At least, that's what I think it's saying. Bit Engrishy - "Predictably, six blank writeable DVDs are needed to create the recovery DVD."
Is it just confused because it's a Blu-ray drive or something?

Noone really cares if you don't like stationary, and gaming laptops are a gimmick.
Or rather, for the most part.

I don't get why people here have a thing against gaming laptops. Sure they are overpriced, probably those that have a grudge against them won't ever need one. But some people travel alot, some people still want the power to do video encoding that they can do on their own home desktop while on an airplane, on at work etc.
It's funny how a dual core + HT ivybridge laptop can pretty much rape a Q6600, and the quad core ivybridges beat the i7 920. How's that for power?

Why would anyone use it on a lap? It's simple.. the smaller it is, the more heat will be contained in one area. If you compare the TDP's of a laptop versus your typical gaming desktop, you'll see that laptops are more efficient.
Personally, I'm getting the new asus 1080P Ultrabooks, most likely going to get the one with a discrete GPU, and upgrade the 500GB HDD into a 240-256GB SSD.
'For the most part'
There are always exceptions, but most of the time you are probably going to be using it at the same desk, might as well get a good gaming stationary and a decent laptop, encoding is different though.
