My laptop doesn't have 1gb of ram, it only has 512mb.  awesome; 
Also, the battery keeps dieing so I'll use that excuse too.



Microsoft Office? WTF,  I'm going to be a rebel and keep Open Office.


I'm not getting anti spyware. :|:|:| I want it.

If they just let me use Ubuntu instead of XP I wouldn't need it.

I sometimes use my dad's old laptop.

If you ever see a post of me on IE 6 and using Windows 2000, that's me on the laptop.

I'm not even supposed to be using it. gonk;

The only time I use it is when he's gone. I can sit on the comfy couch and watch TV while on the computerz.
