No, its my laptop for school... and he thinks Dell's look funny or something...

But actually... that whole thing about India... I agree it sucks. I just I made six calls today before they finally could make a transation. Three to Dell, three to my bank.

When filling out payment info, I said daily limit is $1,500. They try to charge the full amount, it doesn't go through. They try again. It puts a flag on my account for fraud. I finally got it to go through for 1/3 of the cost of the laptop. So it will take 3 days to get past billing before they even start billing or shipping. Man they are retarded... thankfully I'm not in a hurry to get it.

It came today. I opened it up, put the XP CD in, and formated. It has reinstalled and I'm doing Windows Update right now. I'll post back here soon and let you know how I'm liking it. No gripes yet.

Well, it's still hard to be sure, but so far I'm really liking it. I installed CS and ran it at 1680x1050 and got 99fps steady when not in smoke.

The screen is rediculously awesome!

One of the only complaints really is that the sound card doesnt support anything beyond stereo audio... so my rear speakers don't do anything now... until I get a y-adapter.

So yeah.... happy happy. The keyboard is great, I'm getting used to it really fast. So anyway.... that's all.... bye now
