This is a laptop, runs on batteries.

Oooh, that's why!

Laptops with major upgrade-able desktop parts (CPU in BK's case) are really cool. Laptops lately are getting even desktop GPU's (I don't suppose upgrade-able tho).

 

[Celery]

Some aren't but I think gaming laptops are upgradable.

Man am I loving this weather. It's been in the high 60's all week.

This is my kind of Winter....

Some of the new ones that had desktop GTX1000 series would be upgraded I believe What A Gaming Laptop Decked Out With Two Desktop GPUs Can Do

 

[Smart_Guy]

I honestly think gaming laptops are waste of money 90% of the time. Their prices are seriously higher than personally built desktops.

 

[Celery]

You pay for the portability and compactness.

 

[Smart_Guy]

True. That can be achieved with desktops too with affordable compromise vs seriously worthy money saving, if one knows their way. Then again it's not always the case, thus my 90% of the time instead of 100%. I guess the expression "money talks" is heavily involved here haha!

Let's see...

A shower curtain rod, a coupler, 2 small rolls of coax cable and a couple of clamps...

Tada... 62 channels with full strength signal.

I coupled my old FreeVision antenna with my Yagi antenna and point them in different directions plus move em up higher for better reception.

So, i just dropped a scratch pen on my monitor at work.
Not sure if it's called a scratch pen, but you know, It's that pen with a metal spike you use to engrave number on computers.
Anyway, i dropped that on my monitor because i am an idiot.
Do any of you have a suggestion on how to reduce the damage?
