The replacement.

I missed the PC show la.

The few seconds of crowd that appeared on the TV news nightly was reason enough for me to give the PC show a total miss.

The sis told me that though it is after the PC show, but there will still be worthwhile deals in the market. We made plans to go and look see and to get 1 such deal.

Hence, it is with much urgency that I really need to get the replacement, FAST.

Just before I left office (was on half day leave yesterday to go in search of that replacement), my boss came to know of my sorry plight and he told me that I can get the student/staff deal for the Fijitsu labby, which is acutally quite a good deal.. provided that I can stand the color.

The color in his mind is really offensive. And he said it with his nose wrinkled up and with sarcasm.

So I went to search for the deal thru our intranet.

And I found it!

Immediately, I placed an order for it online - even before I went to meet my sis to do labby shopping...

My new labby will have the follow specifications...
Intel® Centrino® 2 Processor Technology
Intel® Core2 Duo Processor P8400
(2.26GHz, 3MB L2 Cache, 1066MHz FSB)

I don't understand MORE than half of the things up there.

I bought it because all the ppl I asked said that this was worth it.

Hence, my new labby.... The Fijitsu LifeBook, L1010 in PINK Gold.

Pretty right?!

It's the ONLY color under this promotion.

Luckily, it's also my favourite color!Delivery should be mid next week.

I'm Happy!
