Posted 26 Mar 2009 I currently have $106, and Im saving up for... I don't know. First I was going to save up for an Xbox360, and then I wanted to save up for a Laptop, and then a mini-Laptop, and now Im just confused... I need help deciding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 You don't need a mini-laptop. They're pointless. It's between a laptop and an Xbox360, right? Well, if you're alright with the computer you're using now, I would go for the Xbox360 personally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 Your computer is a tard. I'd say to go for the laptop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 Well, I can rarely be on this computer I get kicked off all the time when Im in the middle of important conversations. It's quite annoying. And I can live without a 360 rather easily. The only reason I want one is for: Ninja Gaiden 2; Halo 1,2, and 3; Fable ll; and possibly something else... A Laptop though...

Posted 26 Mar 2009 His computer is bad? Then go for the laptop. It will probably last longer than an Xbox360 anyway, which has a pretty high mortality rate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 Could you list some of the better things about both? That'll help A LOT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 (edited) Well, I've had both so I'll try. Having your own PC/Latop: Advantages: * Can keep all your own files secure without others spying on them. * Don't have to share it if you don't want. * Can have certain websites (aka. here) automatically sign you in without fear of having siblings take over. * Depending on the power of it, you could play some good games on it. Disadvantages: * Feel obliged to list advantages of having your own laptop even though none spring to mind. Having an Xbox: Advantages: * Get all those delicious games. * Great online, apparently. Disadvantages: * Online =/= Free. * Might get bored of it quickly. * High Mortality rate. * Living a life knowing that you'll never have a PS3.

Posted 26 Mar 2009 Lol, Thanks for that. Im definitely gonna save for a Laptop, but this should be kept open, just in case. Yeah, a Laptop sounds REALLY good. And I get to play Halo 1 and 2 whenever I see my friend Ryan anyways, so... I can live without Halo 3, as it's the worst funwise. How much do you think a good laptop will be? Im not buying anything over $600... In total. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 :/ Mine cost... Wait, I'm British. I have no idea then. But it's good that you made the right decision. I mean, with a laptop, you could download all kinds of rubbish like Photoshop stuff so that you can try making stuff like is in your signature. I download a load of stuff too and backup DVDs quite alot. Quick Question: Is 8 pixels over sig limit alright? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Mar 2009 Well, my dad threw out this awesome laptop magazine I had, but I'll start with saying this: Get a Dell. They are amazingly awesome and have sales often. In other words, you can get a laptop that'd normally be $700 for $600 dollars, sometimes. Great quality and a lot of space. Also, you'd probably want one that connects to wireless internet.

Posted 26 Mar 2009 Yeah, wireless FTW. I planned on getting a Dell already. The Dell computers at my school ROCK MY WORLD. They're so fast all the time :sqint: And such unpixelatedness... You can't even tell it's pixels. misa's is... I think it's Dell... Im not sure. I've never seen it. It was broken until recently. And hers ROCKS. Dell FTW!

Posted 26 Mar 2009 My dad has a Dell and it's pretty good. Mine's Compaq but it's decent too. I got it on sale after all, so I'm not arguing. Except that I got Norton. :< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
