Manly shopping

I have decided to buy a laptop to make my contracting work a little easier. It will be a couple of months before I have saved up the cash to buy it, but moriven is already looking for builds and deals for me. In many ways, he is a deal hunter like I am, but his focus is on things that it never occurs to me to follow the prices on: cars and electronics.

So far, we have been able to cut out an astounding number of machines just because I refuse to run Vista.

Oh, for Heaven's sake
