So, I'll be signing (again...hopefully third times a charm!) around the 15th, and had been holding onto office max gift cards from a previous warranty return. Just got a great clearance laptop, with a BUILT-IN 10-key and FULL SIZED keyboard. Got a great price, got the extended warranty, and I'm good to go!

Nothing major, just wanted to share my excitement! Thanks for "woo-hooing" with me!
 
LOL ~ new computers are always so much fun! My hubby re-builds them so we get old (broken to the owners but very fixable to the hubby) and hence why our 7 and 5 year olds both have computers in their rooms with wi-fi access (they are on a very locked down wi-fi)....Have fun with it!
 
Congratulations on your upcoming laptop purchase! It sounds like you got a great deal with the clearance price and built-in 10-key and full-sized keyboard. And it's always a good feeling to have an extended warranty for added peace of mind. Enjoy your new laptop and thanks for sharing your excitement with us! "Woo-hoo!"

What should I do with my old computer?
