congrats aaron, you get to buy yourself a new laptop![views:7196][posts:63]______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:28pm - the_reverend ""] there are a couple wires at the hinge of the top that have been known to get cut as the top opens and closes. my speakers haven't worked for a year, but it just shorted out something, there was a spark and no more LCD light. yeah! spending a ton of $$ on a new laptop is just what I wanted to do right now! yeah! |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:31pm - Dylan Klebold ""] saw 1 in the austin chronicle for $99,used. |
| _____________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:32pm - pam ""] My left hinge is broken, my screen randomly falls backward. It's awesome. Go laptops. |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:34pm - RichHorror ""] As long as you're happy. |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:39pm - Dylan Klebold ""] Laptops,from Lapland two nights only. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:52pm - the_reverend ""] yeah, what I need to buy to replace this laptop will be able $1700. I would know the exact ammount, but my lappy doesn't work and my phone doesn't like www.dell.com |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:55pm - sxealex ""] ummmmmmmmm why not just get a new lcd light they are like 80 bucks i think |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 2:57pm - Dylan Klebold ""] ricky,julian,bubbles,donkeres,now i'm hooked. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:01pm - the_reverend ""] ahahahahahaha. last time I pricedreplacing the LCD on a laptop, it costs as much as the laptop ($999)m that was last year. I have the LCD apart, I'm looking for anything that looks like sparks came from it. I'm hoping that I can find a snowman without his hat on. I'm probably going to get a nice little lappy and then use this one with a LCD monitor as a desktop with a USB harddrive case (since my desktop burmt out lastmonth) |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:04pm - sxealex ""] http://www.okcomputerservices.com/laptop.htm 75 plus parts? for cable and inverter replacement? |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:06pm - sxealex ""] dude if u peel of the white part on the back of the lcd there is a neon bulb looking thing in there u dont need to replace the lcd just the light and cable |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:06pm - sxealex ""] unless u smashed the lcd |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:07pm - Dylan Klebold ""] play some marilyn manson or rammstein. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:17pm - the_reverend ""] the LCD is fine.. I think it's the ligh controller card. that's where the spark came from. and I think you are missing the deal. 75 is for the labor. a 12.1 xwvga is $$$ that's where all the cost comes in. the "parts" would be hundreds. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:21pm - the_reverend ""] $269 for the LCD http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Dell-Inspiron-700M...rdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:22pm - the_reverend ""] I found the inverter online for $25, but it's oos. http://www.parts-people.com/index.php?acti...ion=category&previd=141&prevstart=0 |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:23pm - sxealex ""] u dont have to buy the lcd if its not cracked... so there is "little" $$ involved. i read the 75$ plus parts look at my post. its gonna be like 50-100 bucks parts from them if u want someone who does it for a living to do it. so like 200 in all what are the specs on the computer? |
| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:25pm - sxealex ""] find out the model # i have like 3 laptops here that are dismantled ur welcome to have their inverters one has a smashed lcd and lights up |

| _________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:38pm - sxealex ""] its an apple inverter off an ibook but it might be the same part just made by apple |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:46pm - the_reverend ""] I don't know the apples weren't xwvga. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 3:47pm - the_reverend ""] I'm pretty sure I'm just going to use my work laptop for now and then hook this one up to an LCD panel. I don't know. |

| ______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 8:54pm - the_reverend ""] ha! yeah, the part I need Is a samsung part. my laptop's gone everywhere with me for over 2 years now. so I'm more than pleased with it. I wanted to wait until atleast feb to get a new lappy. I really want a quad core 3GHz with SATAII 200gb drive and 2GB ram... but whatever. cire 2 prices are going to drop in jan or feb |
| ____________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 9:43pm - anonymousteinberg ""] Get a Lenovo or Averatech. About $800 less for roughloy the same stats and higher machine quality (durability, engineering, etc) |
| _____________________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 10:08pm - ConquerTheBaphomet ""] Did you want a cookie or a pat on the back, Aaron? |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 25,2006 11:59pm - the_reverend ""] I want a working laptop. IBM's are for chinaamen now. |
| _____________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:06am - anonymousteinberg ""] What dysfunction have you experienced with Lenovos? |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:12am - the_reverend ""] well, I've had an IBM for 3 years and I'm on hard drive #3, motherboard #3 and keyboard #2. lenovos are also twice the price for the same specs. I priced out a comparable lenovo (even with the current "excellent" deal) and it was super $$$$. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 1:11am - the_reverend ""] looking at the Lenovo 3000 V100... and the gateway comparable. the gateway got better reviews. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 1:12am - the_reverend ""] blah! both the gateway and the lenovo don't come with 720rpm SATA hard drives. screw that. the gateways do have tablet PCS though.. I've always wanted a tablet! |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 1:58am - the_reverend ""] fuck gateways... they don't have core 2 duos in thier 12.1"s |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:00am - the_reverend ""] fudge |
| _________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:02am - sxealex ""] ur on hardrive 3 on your ibm? dude why dont u buy a better brand of hard drive? i bet u got toshiba everytime |
| _________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:04am - sxealex ""] u really should get bluetooth on your compy its pretty useful... 'specially the edr one |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:26am - the_reverend ""] cause my work pays for them all. not me. my 2 ones above have bluetooth built in. the lenovocomes with a thumbprint reader. I like that. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 8:21am - Messerschmitt ""] CYBERFUCKINGMONDAY REV:stupidflanders: |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 8:22am - the_reverend ""] yeah, dell deals on this monday. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 10:14am - infoterror ""] Weird. I've used an IBM for five years, no problems. It's sad to admit, but a friend has a Dell with a similar record. Even the Compaqs seem to work OK these days. I would never buy anything from Gateway. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 10:43am - the_reverend ""] my work dell had the same exact record (down to the # of failures) as my IBM. all the parts are made by like 2 companies anyhow. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 11:46am - infoterror ""] It's true. It seems that way in every industry. Kind of boring. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:04pm - the_reverend ""] wlcome to america, home of the whopper, the melting pot, and a contract to the lowest bidder. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:22pm - infoterror ""] Lowest minority bidder, that is. America as it is doesn't have long to last. That much history shows us. Our future is... Mexico; and thus, our future ends. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:31pm - the_reverend ""] I think we got about 10-20 years before our decline. then there will be 2-3 other "super powers" it's going to be fun! can't wait! someday, I'll be 65, hunting for scraps and wearing dirty cloths. |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:34pm - Messerschmitt ""] this is what i've been saying all along. get ready. get your guns loaded for the chinks are the one's we should be watching. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 12:40pm - the_reverend ""] they will out math you guns. |
| ____________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:59pm - anonymousteinberg ""] 10-20 years sounds about right according to the timeline in The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion Practice your Hebrew! And Chinese... they've always been the real contender to the superpower throne. Oh and don't forget almost every nation on earth will have nukes, so make that "65, hunting for scraps and wearing dirty clothes surrounded by radiation and mutants." |
| _______________________________ [Nov 27,2006 9:44am - Mess ""] anything yet? |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 7:12pm - anonymous ""] well..you know what i came home too carina |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 7:26pm - the_reverend ""] yeah.. hard drives are hella lame. |
| ____________________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 8:30pm - anonymousteinberg ""] Hard drives won't matter after the Chinese invade. You will have to use ancient Jewish art of Torah-encoding on parchment. Oy, those Jews. Only the best(tm). |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 9:23pm - the_reverend ""] I tried the torah and it didn't work. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 9:23pm - the_reverend ""] what I need is for a $750 off $1500 coupon. |
| _______________________________ [Nov 28,2006 6:12am - Mess ""] tora tora! |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 28,2006 4:21pm - the_reverend ""] now my work laptop is sounding like it's going to blow up! |
| _____________________________________________ [Nov 28,2006 6:40pm - elders of zion nli ""] Blame the Arabs when it does, claim insurance, buy a new one. See? G-d did help you in the form of a helpful Elder of Zion to solve all your silly little goyisch problems. |
