GUESS WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TODAY GUYS

My laptop finally took a shit today after I came home

But I have good news. My mom is getting me a new HP Desktop Tower from ebay (possibly) after I told her the news

That hopefully will be my new computer in the coming weeks. Wish us luck

LMAO! 1 DOLLAR?! That computer is a piece of shit. Sorry to burst your bubble but... That computer sucks. Notice how it doesn't say anything about graphics cards? It doesn't explain the Processor and everything else. 40 GB?! xD. Fail. 512 MB Ram = Not good, but not bad. Sorry to burst your bubble dude. My computer is bad, but honestly, not as bad as the one that costs 1 DOLLAR. FFS

ebay is the cheapest way to get A comp

this is the comp I bought

i already have a new pc. and lappy does work, i had it gutted looking for any signs of fail. anyway, my new pc is a 2.4ghz pentium 4 with 1 gig of ram, an ASUS mobo, and a Radeon 9600 XT. funny story behind it too. i bought it at a garage sale for 100 dollars. the people who owned it said it didnt work, so i figured i could fix it. SO with strikers help, i discovered that the hard drive was plugged in as a slave instead of a primary. so LULZ.

Well, at least he is getting a new cpu!

Sheawn read the shipping. People usually put the price they want to sell it for as the shipping and the computer specs may not be great but seriously I can bet you It'll handle many things thrown at it. And also my laptop HAD Vista and I enjoyed it until everytime I played a game for an amount of time it would automatically shutdown.

Sheawn, you honestly DON'T KNOW HOW EBAY WORKS. Everything on Ebay starts at $1 until someone bids on it. By the time the auction is over, it could raise over $200. I should know, I've sold things on ebay.

Lol, you're right. I didn't know how Ebay works. My bad. Lol.

Also always keep an eye on shipping because nobody seems to do that and you could get a good deal at the last minute. Some guy outbid my mom for a 3 GHz computer with the same stuff as the one I posted for about $90 ($50 for the bid while the shipping costed $38.95)

Fuggin' EBay. I hate auctions. I always get annihilated on them. It's retardiculous. I mean, You bid like... 400 for a decent computer, KABLAM! Someone bids 410. Turns out you only have 405. Then you shoot yourself because you also didn't have enough money for shipping.

Oh yeah though my mom did get me some things from ebay (PSX Doom, Cosplay outfit, shoes, new computer , and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past)

EBay is where I got my Max Media Dock, some PC accessories, and a Compound Bow for Shooting stuff with arrows.

that happened to me when i was looking for a filler panel for my car, (its the piece that is in between the tail lights, mine was busted out) i saw one for 10 bucks, i bid 20. it stayed for 3 days that way till right at the last second someone bid 25 and took it right from my nose. sucked balls. found one at a junk yard anyway lul.

Its happening to me -.-

Ok sorry for the bump I just wanted to update you guys on a new computer I have discussed with my parents about getting me for christmas.
