I got a new laptop last week to replace my old HP. I had to, since I found out the range I happen to own (DV6000) has a technical fault in it’s build which will cause it to fail after a while. I had it fixed twice already and thought I’d better get rid of it before it happens again.
So I picked up a HP DV5 for £400 (~$580) as a refurb with a year warranty. It’s a really good looking laptop and for the price is packed with features:
If anyone is in the market for a good but pretty cheap laptop, I’d suggest having a look at one of these. The only drawback is since it’s “Made for Vista”, HP doesn’t have support for XP with it’s drivers.

A part of me dies everytime they come out with a Punisher movie.
I keep thinking, “Maybe this time they’ll do it justice”.
On an unrelated note, has anyone else downloaded the extra content for Fallout 3 yet?
The first one is nothing great, but gives up some great gear. Second one is out tomorrow.[/quote]
They need to keep the guy who just played Frank Castle…DESTROY EVERYONE ELSE INCLUDING THE DIRECTOR…and hire someone who can write a script like The Dark Knight.
I am not against women directors, but I do believe that they should stay away from action movies, especially ones that require this much gore.
I do give her credit though for wanting to make a hard R Punisher movie with decent action and gore. I read a few interviews with her before the movie was out, and honestly, I was super stoked because of what she had to say; she seemed like she had a good handle on the source material and had a similar vision to my own.
But then it went horribly wrong. I saw it in theaters, so I don’t remember too too much, but I though West’s and his on-screen brother’s performance were cringe-worthy. And like you said, that was definitely the result of some misguided direction.

I give her much credit for every fight scene.
I also want to slap her for all of the shit in between.
So I went to my dads this weekend and my brother was playing WoW: Rise of the Lich King. This was the first time I have seen it played and up until that I had no interest in playing WoW again, its a sickness! Well I have the sickness again, I played a little bit of the Death Knight and was really impressed. So once I get my computer running I afraid I’ll turn into a Troll that doesn’t want to come out of its cave for like a week.

Just about every customer I can ever recall buying WoW game cards / games in my lines looked like meth addicts, zombies, fat emos, or Holocaust victims. Sad thing is that I’m not really exaggerating.
Believe me, I am a life-long hardcore video-game nerd, but you’re right. WoW is (except for 99% of the Wii) the worst mass-bought thing to ever happen to video games.

It dragged me back in too. I had no problems not playing anymore and they had to go and add Death Knights. I was an old school EQ Shadowknight so I had to try it. It is a damn good expansion. But I had to quit playing because I just don’t have time for MMOs anymore.

It doesn’t but if you search around enough you can find them to make it work. It is a pain in the ass though.

Motherfuck. Am I the only person who didn’t play these games because they looked like gigantic turds? Anyone I’ve talked to always say they were pretty badass… I don’t know. Maybe I should’ve played them, but from what I saw, niether one looked very fun.
