Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.

There will be compromise with the cooing too.

 

Also, it's not that thin. Would much rather have a proper ultrabook imo.

Compatible with Windows 95

Not even impressive for the price or form factor. What a waste of a thread.

Seen it, one thing for sure, you'll get heating issues, as for the hardware itself is absolutely BEST BUY deals around! If only they did something about the body build for better heat dissipation. Just by that factor, its a deal breaker
