Noooooooooooo!! *dies*

So, the screen died on my troublesome Toshi which means I will probably be a little sporadic over the next few weeks because while my work laptop is excellent, I also hate lugging it home on the train everyday so will be without computer off and on.

The Toshi I have has been nothing but a pain in the arse and since my extended warranty is with the store rather than the brand, I'm thinking if it's a case of replacement, I will go with something completely different. I'm also thinking desktop because I have my work lappie which is very new and splinky and an office model so lovely and reliable if I need something portable and the good thing about being in such a big company is the asset is yours rather than belonging to the job, so my laptop moves with me, even if I change positions.

You can get really teeny cute desktops now and considering they are MUCH cheaper... I'm thinking that's the way to go...

Also, my Toshi was huge and with a wide screen so pretty much as portable as a desktop anyway considering it weighed a frelling metric ton.

I can still watch dvds in bed with my work lappie and that's pretty much the only requirement I had for a portable computer. Oh, and writing... heh.

You have a Toshiba? OMG, they suck, they all suck so hard! Get a desktop if that's the way to go (though if you were ever a fan of writing in front of the TV I beg you reconsider), but avoid that company like the plague; it is entirely possible to get a reasonably-priced laptop that is not powered by evil imps. I recommend LG or HP and a warrenty with the actual company. Or, get a really good desktop and place it strategically in your favourite room, so you can have a comforting view whenever you look up.

Anyway, enough with my handwaving. Sorry.

I know that *now* :(

Heh... I have my computer set up at the kitchen counter (that's the only place the cable would go... *sigh*) and teev is right behind me...
