im thinking of buying this monster, http://laptopmedia.com/review/dell-inspiron-15-7548-review-sleek-and-powerful-notebook-with-uhd-touch-screen-great-for-multimedia/

a retinal dell (new yospos meme perhaps???)

i dont know whether to get something cheap now that ill ditch in a years time or get something like this which isnt top of the line but is good enough

other considerations: lenovo z50, £240 cheaper and has a better gpu, but doesnt have a backlit keyboard (not a big deal) and only 1080p screen

I’d make eye contact with him and fart. I did it all the time for like two years. I didn’t even know his full name, just heard that his coworkers thought he was a nut for complaining about “the guy who would fart on me in the break room”

number pads are bad and make the touchpad offcenter

dell, like apple, has chosen the correct arrangement

I will always bring up the fact that I watched a lady on a cell phone in an apple store try to put her tissue into the mac pro on the counter, try again, look at it, then look around to make sure nobody saw
