The idea of a Gaming Laptop is just a bad concept in general in my book, unless you live like George Clooney in Up in the Air and have to get your Counter Strike fix while travelling or living in hotels.

TBH it's mainly a desktop replacement. Not used truly just for gaming but I dabble in 3d modelling/photoshop etc. Gaming laptops tend to be of higher specs and hence run software better.

I'm so used to laptops, I've stopped using my desktop and stick to the notebook.

Ah I'd recommend a high-spec Toshiba then, they have good layouts and quality screens in my experience.

Will have a look. Have to get my head around the new hardware flying about. Current lappy runs 1.6Ghz centrino.

Just watched The Shredder Strikes Back from the newer TMNT series. The best plot and action I've seen in a long time.

If you guys wanna watch it, I suggest you watch The Shredder Strikes pt 1 and 2, and The Shredder Strikes Back pt 1 and 2. There's also Return to New York pt 1, 2 and 3 which complete thigs a bit more. All can be viewed on youtube.

I've got the first two parts on DVD from when they originally released them - for whatever reason, I stopped buying them after that (I think the publishers started messing things up in general IIRC). However, the sets did contain brilliant mini figures

I'm still thinking about how damp and cold my parents house is. Can't sleep and had asthma non-stop since I've been back here. Can't wait to head south.

Could it simply be the fact that it is Up North that is affecting you?

That would be totally true. However, when I said I wanted to head south, I meant further south! I'm still in Cornwall. Except this particular bit is full of radon, granite, and lots of green damp stuff outside. Oh, and then there's the fact I'm living with my parents again, which is probably not helping psychologically.

Been out at work and felt fine all day (aside from being tired from last night). Within an hour of being back here, asthma's on the blink again

would you consider living in England?

It might be different if your parents still treat you like a kid.

I put in a phone call to Littlewoods today to sort out one of their fcuk-ups... anyway, I then got a spam email in my inbox (the filter normally gets that crap) telling me there had been 'strange activity' linked to my account, blah blah. It was definitely spam - 'Little Woods', links to a fake site etc - but it's far too much of a coincidence, and they'll be hearing from me again

Sure I'd consider it. But it's not really my thing!

Oh, and Amnesia - true story!

It could be down to stress of living with your parents again. Stress can have side effects on your health.
