My pc computer crashed this week and I sure did not buy it during merc retro.

Well, I need a computer.

In my school, we don't use pen and paper anymore. We take notes and even the exams on your laptop.

But, it is said that it is not recommended to buy a computer during merc rx, so am I supposed to wait until after May 11? It is a hassle to go to the computer lab, borrow a computer, etc....and what can I say, it feels better to have my own computer and working on it instead of using someone else's.

I don't like the idea of having astrology ruling my life but I am scared of it crashing if I buy it now...although I have owned three computers and they crash regardless. Now, I am finally switching to Macs.

Also, I have natal mercury retro.

What say you?

If you need a computer, buy a good computer. Mercury is retrograde ? Whatever.

Nah, maybe the probabilities are higher or whatever, but if a computer bought during Mercury Rx would certainly fail, then wouldn't it be a major problem for all the sellers every time Mercury goes Rx? X3 Well, this isn't a surgery or starting a relationship, so I would say go ahead, and you can always have the guarantee period if something goes wrong (if something software goes wrong, just format it lol and if something hardware goes wrong, they'll probably just exchange the piece in the seller, even if it's after the 15 days of trial, as long as it's within the guarantee years).

Amowls...

Of course! I am done with pc. I have owned three and all of them crash on me. No, thanks. I have converted to Mac.

Glaucus

The motherboard died. It would cost me 360 to fix that, I might as well just get a new computer.

Taurus?

Well, I have moon and rising in Taurus.

Am I in trouble then?

Comica

Comica, you are right. I can always return it but....I don't know. I just want to get my mac without worries.

The best deals are on
http://www.newegg.com/ http://www.tigerdirect.ca/

I whould stay away from the new i5 processors or i7 processors unless you really need it.

Unless, your really multitasking, you really won't see a diffrence.

As for Macs,

Well typically the software is better on Macs then PC's are.

But the hardware(Video Card, CPU)is nicer on PC's.

They don't even have any core i7 processors on Mac's yet.

But, it doesn't really matter its software that matters most.

I don't typically like macs, but thats because I typically buy the more expensive laptops($2000- 3000) and replace every 4yrs, of course not everyone whould have that kind of a budget.

My PC, gets a higher expected budget then repairs for my car, LoL

So I don't see much diffrence between mac and Pcs. I'm sure if you buy those cheapo $500 laptops you'll say PC's suck.

No Mac can beat an Alienware laptop.

I'm using a Dell M6400 laptop right now, with a Quadro 2700fx video card.

Spec and performace wise its matches or is better then most macs out there. But it cost about $2500.

I'm Thinking of an Alienware or an asus g51jx-a1

But, the asus has problems with the keyboard, Once again a software problem.

Other then that I don't what you guys are doing to wreck Pc's

I fixed my old Pentium 4 and its from 2002 its still running fine, its even only on 512mb of memory, which is laughable.

Since we can go up to 16gig of memory.

and My old Dell Precision m90 lasted me 5yrs including 3 minor falls, when I dropped it.

Anyway, macs or more of a specialty upscale niche market,

I whould fit in the Desktop Replacment niche/ Gaming Laptops so macs whouldn't fit my bill
