Hello everyone!! I’m back!! I’m terribbly sorry for not replying to anyone’s emails or blogging – but my beloved old desktop died and i had to live off using my sister’s Toshiba for the week
which wasn’t fun because of course she needs her laptop for school work and what not so i didn’t have much time online except to post some sponsored posts
… But now i’m back and with me i’ve got a new sidekick ….
My new Vaio CR in Sangria came yesterdayyyyy!!! I’ve been playing around with it all day yesterday and this morning (it was actually a good motivator to get up early LOL
)
I still have to yet choose a name for him (it’s a he!) and i’m waiting for the uber cute Le Sportsac Pictopop laptop sleeve to arrive so i can freely carry it around everywhere
I also hope to adjust to the new keyboard layout as well
it’s VERY different from the old Dell! So different, that it’s causing me to type soooo slowwww ![]()
Oh & it basically supports only Vista
drivers are a real murder to find (& apparently, some like the audio one is non existent for Windows XP *gulp*). But, till now, it still hasn’t crashed yet
– which is a great thing! What about you guys? Have you had any bad experiences with Vista yet? I find it a bit annoying that it’s sooo different from XP (i must have spent at least 40 mins trying to customize the desktop yesterday
because i couldn’t find the options i wanted!)
Edit: Ok! I’ve decided on the name (finally!) It’s going to be named after one of my favourite Egyptan Gods – Seth
! (& no, the OC has nothing to do with it
i never even watched it
)

















, 


















You could also go for Seiji XD (he’s now named Seth and is in Moi dix mois XD). But hey, naming after a chaos god could mean good stuff ne XD
My brother’s laptop also runs on Vista and it’s pissing me off T_T I hope that my laptop (yes, I’m getting one when I hit to the university =D) has a more stable version. I mean- service pack 2 is announced, so you have to get updates yet again >.>
But the nice part about vista is their games. Have you played it yet? One is this bakery liked one where you make these delicious looking pies and all that XD
(I should get back to work on economics now)

Oh my god! It’s VAIO!! I want that one before but when I bought mine, there is no sign of the existence of the VAIO laptop at the computer store (if I want it, I’ll have to order. Since I need a laptop ASAP, so yeah I just bought an ASUS laptop)
ANd I love it. It’a Vista. At first I thought Vista sucks and when I used it, HELL NO! It works extremely fast since I have a 2GB RAM. Awesome huh? and 200GB of diskspace. Oh and I got 1GB ram for free and a bag pack, blank DVDs (12 Pieces), a mouse.. blah blah..
I think it’s worthy. I love it soo much! Oh, VAIO is a product of Panasonic isn’t it? Or I’m wrong? hehee.. by the way, I love the colour of your laptop.
Send my ‘regards’ to Seth..lol

It’s a purtee! I still have to find a name for my laptop, too! I think it’s a female.
I use Vista at the Career Centre. (My laptop is XP tho! XDDD) It just takes some time to get use to. Vista does support Photoshop, cos the Career Centre’s techinician installed Adobe Master Package CS3, which includes Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Flash Maker. ^__^ It has everything! So at least you should be safe with Photoshop.
Just take your time with Vista and it’s not that bad. I still prefer my XP on my laptop right now. ^___^

Thank you for the comment, I just can’t believe I didn’t notice that feature before!
Ooh shiny VAIO! My dad has one but is boring and has it in deep navy-black. It looks lovely in that colour. I also love the vaio screen, it’s so clear and crisp. I use XP but as my dad has Vista I’ve fiddled with it. Some of the desktop things are annoying as they have the potential to slow other things up, but it does look quite pretty (for windows). I’ll be interested to see how it works for someone doing website and graphical work.

I haven’t had any bad experiences with Vista, just that I prefer staying with XP right now.
I might upgrade when I get my new computer though since XP and Vista cost EXACTLY THE SAME PRICE!
Anyways … my boyfriend has some driver issues but that was to be expected since some of his stuff went bad. Besides that it runs great.
UsingApril 21st, 2008 @ 7:24 pm
What a beautiful machine.
Vista on my previous PC was hell, but because it was very basic and didn’t even have 1GB of RAM to support Vista’s ‘components’. Vista running alone takes a lot of memory but if it’s at least 1GB it should run at normal speed when having multiple programs open (just not very large ones or it lags). Most programs are compatible with Vista these days and the ones that don’t have compatibility out of the box have the updated downloads on their site. The one thing I despise about it is that you have to disable the firewall and defender or else it can’t locate external hard drives/memory cards (this proved to be true with a Pro Stick Duo from my PSP/camera). So that just means you need to download a good anti-virus/spyware program ’cause Vista’s sucks hard.
Whoa, that was long. Sorry.

VAIO…:speechless: It’s so, so beautiful, and so, so utterly amazing…I’m really jealous of you! XD; But really — you’re so lucky! Take good care of it…uhm, what am I saying? Of course you’ll take good care of it. BECAUSE IT’S A VAIO. :stares:
Seth? No, seriously, I did think about OC there…but it’s a cute name (just as cute as the Seth guy)
I was going to suggest Billy, though…:hit for lame sense of humour:
UsingApril 22nd, 2008 @ 4:41 pm
The only problem I had with Vista is that it doesn’t support much of the older softwares—I had to buy/download softwares just to make Vista happy.
Don’t worry, learning how to customize Vista is fun! 
Oh oh oh oh … Seth is a hawt name.
Congrats on finding a name! Heehee.

UsingApril 28th, 2008 @ 1:56 pm
That’s one mighty fine laptop. I love the way the Vaio looks. I just hate that they’re so friggin’ big. It’s a laptop…it should fit on your lap. My Dell laptop died a few months ago. I had it for four years, so I think it had a good run. I replaced it with a desktop, though, because I have a crappy IBM laptop that I got from my school.
My desktop has Vista. It took a little while to get used to, but I absolutely love it now. I haven’t had any trouble with downloading drivers or anything.

Its color is so pretty. And its name sounds really cool. My computer makes a lot of noise & it doesn’t have Vista, but my father uses Vista & I don’t understand anything. Maybe I just have to get used to it.
Oh I just looked at your laptop sleeve. I like it too

UsingMay 2nd, 2008 @ 12:57 am
I have to say that before I got Vista, I was heavily anti-Vista. However, now that I’ve been using it, I really love it. There are some times that I’m like – “Hmm…how to clean the machine, but its all good.”
UsingMay 2nd, 2008 @ 1:43 pm
Oh, wow, you are one lucky person! I only have an old Dell laptop from year 2005 (I think). And, truly, it’s not my laptop, but my online school’s laptop. So, yeah, you’re really lucky and I love that shade of red.
