Well, I'm going to go play another level of NSMB Wii, and then change clothes out of what I am wearing to something presentable at a party for my old boss, and then go hang out till probably 1-2am
It kinda sucks with my parents having 2 vehicles and one being repaired. That means we only have the F-150 and it's a cardinal sin for anyone but my dad to drive it, apparently. Plus, it's low on gas.
I do have all the required crap for college. Except Meningitis. I waived that requirement.
And then I remember him being upset like six weeks after because nobody else was having to get the vaccine. I could be remembering it wrong, though.
Either way, that sucks!

Were you looking for mobility or something that's going to be near an outlet most of the time?

I don't buy 15" notebooks anymore but if I had to make a recommendation based on what you just posted and the price you posted, I would suggest something along the lines of the Asus UL50AG.
More bang for the buck I think. Very nice performing and very energy efficient processor - CULV SU7300 - that should get 9 to 11 hours of battery life. Larger hard drive - 500 v 250. 0.5 pounds lighter. The MSI has an Express Card slot but most users would never make use of it. The MSI has a slightly better video card as well - 8200M versus 4500MHD. But again something most users would never notice.
Everything else is mostly the same - 4GB ram, HDMI out, gigabit LAN, 802.11n WLAN, Windows 7 Home Premium x64.
The UL50AG is usually around $450 to $500.
But if you're happy with what you got that's all that matters.
