Its finaly happened.

My laptop is now unfunctional and there is no way to repair it without sending it to it's developers(the insurance is gone). The lid that has the ON button in it has been un-plugged from the actual computer and there is no way to plug it back in. (it wasn't even a propper plug-in cable, it was taped to it from the start but the tape is no removed and the cable is lose.) I tried to start it while holding the cable to it's correct port and pressing the ON button a lot of times, but still... nothing.

I guess i won't be active on this forum anymore untill i get a new computer. Hopefully that is very soon but i don't know when. I've planned to buy a new computer for a long time now and it seems the time has finaly come. I will occasionaly "borrow" my mothers computer but i can't do that very often.

So... untill i get a new computer i will be 90% less active here. Have fun :haha:

Hurts to lose your laptop, I know ;_;
Get a new machine and come back soon :)

Man, that sucks. ._. I know how it is when your PC/laptop dies. I hope you can patch things up quickly and won't lose any data.

Hopefully it won't be long until i get a new computer. I think i will order one the 30th Oktober or maybe the 1th November. However i don't know how long a delivery over the net will take for a desktop computer.

It's a good thing i was prepared for this, i actually saved the most important stuff from my laptop to my i-pod which is now safe and won't disapear. That includes my RMXP project that i have been working on for so long. I just lose a few days work, that's all :)

The computer i'm aiming to buy might not be the best but its cheap and twice as better than my laptop so i don't think i will complain any day soon :D

I'm gona have to wait another whole month to get the new computer  :<_<: (Thought i will get a better one than the one i wrote about above  :huh:....  :haha: )
   

Fantasist

If you're going to get a better one, the wait will be worth it. Hang in there until then.

PS: ...how much better? :3

@Fantasist: Somewhere near twice as good as the one i mentioned above so it'll be worth the wait, as you said ^^

@Fenriswolf: My computer WAS my little puffy puppy! xD
   

Fantasist

Cool. Keep us posted on the new config as soon as you know.

@Fenriswolf: haha, I agree with MarkHest xD

I finaly got my new computer!! :haha: This feels fucking amazing since i have never owned a computer like this before!

I buyed both a desktop and a wide screen... well... screen :P
I altso got the newest version of Norton which i am paying 500kr for in a yearly fee.

The whole thing all together costed 6100kr, however i can't afford a price like that so I did a payment plan to pay 500 swedish kronor per month until the 6100kr is payed off.

Note that if you take a sum devided by 7 you get it in dollars. So 6100 devided by 7 becomes dollars.


I did a few screenshots with a crappy mobile camera but here they are anyway.

Priceless, man. But I'm really happy for you! This looks like an awesome ware to be on, and glad it's been gone out with much further happiness. xD Also, Sweden. <3
