yeah I am in the middle of the desert surrounded by iraqi's I don't see a circut city anywere near me.

If that confuesed you I am currently deployed to iraq. I needed a computer, but I can't go to a store and get one. and building a computer with all the dust out here is not going to happen

 

[LUFFY-KUN]

[Vash theTyphoon]

Can you build a laptop from scratch?
(if you didnt notice his computer is a laptop...)

 

[gunblade]

shit! I just noticed I said pc twice..ok thats better edited it. this is the second time I have tried to buy the damn thing..the people didn't want to send it to a diff address then the billing address so I had to reorder. Now I have to wait for it to be built..sent then I have to wait for my parents to mail it to me. ****ers.

 

[radiohead]

oh i envy you. im on a PII 233 :rofl:

awesome laptop, just pray that the lousy conditions (heat, sand, etc) dont mess it up :shock:

morrowind is a fan****ingtabulous game :rock:

 

[MAggOT]

you shoulda waited...from what I've been hearing for the video card

 

[Nastyman!]

Why not build your own? it will be cheaper and a learning experience in the end unless your lazy.

How is he going to build his own laptop?
