Also random, it's amazing how different a bathroom can look when all you change is the medicine cabinet.

What part of MSI & Newegg was noob? Mine was around $500
It was a decent deal cupcake. It was full price for the most part, though. I remember searching around the last time we discussed your new laptop before it arrived.

So not a spectacular deal but not a horrible one either. You could have done worse, and as I said the last time we discussed this, as long as you are happy with what you got for what you paid, that's all that matters.

Quote from Phrozt View quoted comment :
As a general rule, I kinda hate prebuilt desktop comps in general... but I know that the MSI hardware I've used was good. I believe their support was also pretty good as well, but it's been a loooooooong time since I've called in for anything and obviously things change.
It's sometimes very difficult to compete price-wise with pre-built computers on a really Slickdeal versus grabbing the parts yourself and assembling, even when the parts are all Slickdeals.

Plus, gone are the days where purchasing a pre-built means locking yourself into proprietary hardware or non-standard components. Many of the larger computer vendors these days use quality name brand boards made by larger OEM's like Asus, Gigabyte, Foxconn, Intel, Asrock, and similar.

ZOMG I am losing my mind today. SO much going on. My event is going on and people are getting snippy. Ugh. I won't be on until tonight most likely. Just a few points:
THanks for all the compliments about my food. I might take a video just for Mal Big Grin

It's kinda funny when Mal and I are the same wavelength. Especially considering we're often NOT!

I've been building comps for a long time... I know other builders have used MSI, but it's kinda funny to hear someone who probably doesn't know many names outside Dell, HP, Apple talk about an established brand as something new, even though you know that while it's an established brand, it's not something mainstream customers would know about...

I dunno.. hard to explain.
Here's an easy explanation -

There was a time you didn't have the knowledge you have now. 'Member those days?

Bad genetics or are you not taking care of your teeth?

That sucks either way.

It's already been documented by many others who (unlike me) have seen your picture. Therefore, your appearance is a fact, or at least widespread agreement of opinion, not flattery.

If you prefer to think my assessment of your relative intelligence is flattery, well then, go right ahead. It's your loss. Harhar
Iagree
