whole car is pretty sweet if we're being honest ;)

they need to stop dreaming.

joke's on them though really isn't it.

there is no interior light fade.

no kidding!

this one?

slow down a little fellas, a simple case of a blown off boost hose would cause both no boost pressure and hugely rich running.

I am familiar with desktops 'raw power', see my last big box.. Was running a fairly extreme overclock too, my laptop does just as good a job as it did at everything I use it for, which includes gaming. As for knowing a little about laptops and 'actual experience and knowledge', here is one I stripped earlier... I do this kind of thing in a professional capacity now..

why would you want that though, just no need for it. For everyday use for 99% of people, a laptop is fine.

a hideous box with ridiculous glowing lights, what a surprise ;)

my laptop has digital audio out like most do these days, plug it into an AV receiver just fine if thats your bag, I used to have such a setup but sold it after realising i could buy a real stereo hifi setup and dramatically improve the SQ by ditching the box of digitalness. As for the screen, I like multi-mon setups and large widescreens too. ;) (I also like big desks, jeez that one was crap) Also being pedantic, for watching videos, TN/film monitors are quite poor, bad viewing angle and colour reproduction, all 19" widescreen monitors are TN/film. For serious quality you need a 20.1" (dell 2007WFP has a superior S-IPS panel) or a 24" (most come with M-PVA panels). My advice would be to ditch the 19" and get a 20.1 anyway, the silver one in the pic is a 19 and lasted me only a couple of months before the low res bugged me so much I just decided ona whim to go out and buy the black 20.1 which is a far superior screen even though it is still a TN/film.

Thanks to MXM technology, laptops these days can be equipped with very powerful graphics cards, not quite like the latest ones for desktops but perfectly capable. Besides which most people will play games on their xbox360 anyway so it matters little.

what's changed then, can't see any major changes here.

no, the strosek doesn't work with your car at all, totally different style. Greddy ones can work allright with veilside skirts (see ChrisC's).

sounds brilliant to me mate, lighten up a bit ;)

go on then, enlighten me.... Afterall I know nothing about computers, I only have the one degree in them...

not sure I undrstand how the sound or picture quality would differ if it were stored on a laptop of desktop :confused:

rubbish, there are high capacity drives for laptops now, and anyway mine has a large external HD. As for upgradability, I can upgrade the CPU, RAM, graphics card, optical drive, I can plug devices in the PC card slots, USB/firewire ports. It is no less upgradeable than a desktop. The only downside I can see with laptops is the poor screens they often come with, too small and terrible PQ. This is why mine runs in tandem with a 20.1" monitor while at home.

don't know what your missing, wouldn't want another desktop PC, big ugly box taking up loads of space, no portability, noisy, unsightly, guzzling the power and in return it does nothing a laptop can't.

that's funny, my mate with an sti3 tells me it is far better on fuel than his previous 300zx.

Why do you have to play real instruments to be a 'real' musician? Electronic music is just as much 'music' as your Springsteen is. If you think otherwise then I would very much like to hear a good argument for your cause because right now you are looking like an a-hole.

dont even bother in the snow, stay at home because you will either crash or get stuck :p

scumbag, real piece of shit, doesn't deserve to live imo.

can't see it having much value if any at all

didn't Bubuche have issues with this?
