If your teacher gives you an F, it is wrong to say "Well what do you expect moron! I didn't study!"

I don't even use my family's desktop anymore, so I don't know the specs on it.

Laptop
OS: Vista
 Motherboard: Don't know.
 Processor: AMD Turion 64 X2  2.00GHz
 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M
 RAM: 3GB DDR2 RAM
 Hard Drive(s): 250GB (internal), Lacie 80GB (external), Lacie 500GB (external)
 CD-RW/DVD-RW: I have one, but don't know much about it.
Mr. Krabs: Do you smell it..that smell...a kind of smelly smell...a smelly smell that smells smelly. Anchovies.
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: ANCHOVIES!
Anchovies: MEEP, MEEP, MEEP.

I probably won't be on here too much being in college and all. I will try to pop on every once in a while though to share my thoughts.

MEEP!, you still anti-Mac? My AMD Computer runs MacOS X Leopard 10.5.4 better than Windows XP or Windows Vista and Adobe CS3 programs like Premiere Pro and Photoshop run a lot faster when I'm running MacOS X.

No, not really. When I was comparing prices, the Mac Laptops were 3 times as expensive as the PC. I felt the Mac also didn't offer as much, so I went with this one. It has everything I wanted/needed and some bonuses.

As far as OS goes, if I had a choice I would like to have XP on here. OS X is fine and all, but I just prefer XP. CS3 runs about the same speed on my laptop as the Macs at my school so I see no need for Mac.

Nah.  I used to when I used a TV tuner, but its inconvenient for navigating downloaded stuff.
