Why even own a desktop computer?

I used to be one of those nerds with 3 computer screen and 50 boxes of motherboards and processors and my custom build tower. Fully modded right.

About two years ago now I lost my job and my tower broke. No money to buy a new CPU and I had just bought an HP Laptop.

To be honest, I eventually sold every piece of hardware and I live by the fullsize desktop replacement laptop.

It's so handy. And I just love it, and nothing every breaks or fails. I already upgraded the memory to a happy size, and this HP model has dual hard drive slots that I filled with two 250 gig drives.

So, when ever I go to a friends house or my parents and use thier desktop, it seems so 1999 to me.

As technology improves, processors get faster, I think more and more people are moving towards mobile anyways.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
