Are you a laptop collector?

I was thinking this coming Core i Macbook Pro will be my 3rd laptop under 4 years...

I never like desktop... I consider they are big chunk of concrete road block.

I still have my first laptop running but many parts of it has been replaced since I overdosed to much steroids on it.

What about you guys?


xD

 

2006 to now:
Inspiron 6400 (smashed screen)
hp nc8000 (desktop)
Joybook S42 (primary)
Thinkpad X61 Tablet (spare)

:C

Soon I'll want an i7 because my current Core 2 Duo P8600 is too slow to do some things in real-time.

 

I wonder your laptop was super mad slow and you decided to put a fist into the screen? xD

 

Maybe I should have written cracked screen.

There was a dead pixel in the center at the top of the screen and I was tying to massage it out with my thumb.

:C

 

yeah... electronic cannot handle massage anyways... they are not living things.

 

I am for sure a laptop collector lol, but after moving to a desktop my laptop purchasing speed has become slow

Since Year 2006:

Sony Vaio AR
Sony Vaio SZ (primary *love*)
Sony Vaio Z
HP dv2t
HP dv4t
Dell XPS Studio 13
Dell XPS Studio 16
Dell XPS 1530
Macbook Pro 13" Unibody


The Dell XPS Studio 13 and 16 were returned since they generate too much heat and so many problems.. other than that, I have all the notebooks in the family ( I have given it to my brother and sisters )

Now I have an eye on the new Sony Z *love* and ofcourse the refresh Macbook (?) whenever they become available

 

Gather all those notebooks there I could have bought a nice Japanese used car.


My first notebook costs like hell $2300 and this second is $1200 + $600 upgrades ($1800)... and Macbook Pro will be above $2000+.

 

hahahaha I just used to have a craze for laptops. My Sony AR was for some 2600$ and SZ was 3500$ . Old crazy times, but then my hobby shifted to Photography and Cameras lol

 

Yikes, all the laptops I have owned .....

I honestly have no idea I started with a toshiba 80486SX with a trackball and a PASSIVE color LCD.

Current line up for PERSONAL ( my family of 5 )
this does not include Laptops directly used for my Business that I do not use daily


2 ASUS UL30VT
2 ASUS UL50VT
1 Alienware M17X
1 Alienware 9750
1 Acer Aspire 8940G
1 Asus G51IJ-3D
3 Panasonic Toughbook CF-19 Tablets
2 Panasonic Toughbook CF-30
1 MBA rev B
1 MBP 13" mid 09 refresh
1 MBP 17" mid 09 refresh
and a bunch of random netbooks

YES we have a laptop addiction but half of these machines are vital to both my work and my wifes work.

and well My Daughters have different tastes in laptops.

 

@ crazycanuk:

Nice !! When are u adding M11x for on-the go gaming ?

On a serious note, how is the UL30VT? Its a tempting little thing.. since Asus 30JT seems no where near =S.. Can the UL30VT play 720p HD movies/clips? and heavy multi-tasking (browsing)?

 

not sure yet I have been eyeing one but sadly enough NONE of us are gamers, the above mentioned graphics based machines ( AW 17X and 9750 and ASUS G51 ) are for my wifes business as she is a heavy CAD and graphics user,

I may be seeing what ASUS does with its ULXXJT series too as I figure they will actually be a sweet little machine even if only has a 310 in it

screams through them with no issue. I hook mine up all the time to stream 1080p to my TV, and define heavy multitasking, I find it right on par with the MBP 13 bootcamped with win 7. but with twice the battery. ( 8.25 - 10 hours of actual use )

Wow !.. thanks for the feedback on the 30VT !.. I might get one if the JT series doesn't show up in the next month...
