Patching Up


My first laptop was a Toshiba Satellite A505-S6965. LOVED IT! The only complaint I had was the design on it. I wish it came in pink instead.

I still bought the laptop for $800. You don’t understand! I bought this thing about 3 or 4 years ago! It was such a great deal!

 A505-S6965 has 4 GB of RAM and a 500 GB hard drive. What sold it to me was the LED backlight. Simply AMAZING!  And the keyboard came with the num lock keys.

The hard drive crashed twice and so I had it replaced both times. It was free with the 1 year warranty. Toshiba has the best customer service. If I had to purchase another laptop again, it will only be through them.

The hard drive crashed again. Guess what? I didn’t extend the warranty. Couple years later, I bought a Western Digital 500 GB hard drive. TADAH! Works like new!

It’s always worth it to spend a considerable amount of money on a laptop. Unless you you have the money, stay away from Apple laptop and computers. Seriously? A 13” laptop with 4 GB of RAM and a 500 GB hard drive for over a $1,200!

The only reason I will buy an Apple laptop or computer is to be able to test software on its operating system. Business reasons. I am a Computer Science student, hopefully that would make more sense.
My laptop is beautifully working. Now I just need to pretty it up. Skins are too spendy. I’ll tackle this project and post photos later. Can’t wait!

Beautiful LED backlight! Wowzers!
Where have I been these last couple of days?

Went to Myth with the beautiful Maisee.
We went to watch her friend, David, perform.
