Honker

Thats the name of my new laptop that my father bought for me on Thursday. He wanted to get it for me because I'll be learning MATLAB this year as well as some other programming... Programs.
My desktop is a much better computer then this In term of performance, but this is a laptop what can you expect? It'd be much harder for me to lug my desktop everywhere, if you can imagine... although I've done it numerous times. Please don't think I'm spoiled, this investment was meant to help my school education this year, and what I'll be learning this year will also be critical for my degree when I go to college.

Here are the specs for anybody who cares.


CPU: AMD Althlon 64 x2 running at 1700 MHZ (1.7 ghz) running 512 kbs of l2 cache on each core (1 meg total)

RAM: 1 gig of DDR2 533 mhz.

Hard Drive: SATA hard drive 150 Megabits per second transfer rate, 5200 RPM.

Video card: Nvidia Ge-force 6150 mobile Shared memory, running it's own GPU.

OS: Windows Vista home premium.

Have fun translating that. :) The more enjoyable part of having a blog is posting something that will confuse your readers... Comment the first thing that comes to your mind when you read each spec.



I think I'm home alone right now... my sisters and mother went to a CPR class this morning at 9:00, and my dad I'm not quite sure. I havn't seen him this morning, he might be still in bed. Teehee Snoozehead :D



Side note. I have my own feelings, and made sure to just be a friend.

Busted! I'm busted. I read down to the part where it said, "here are the specs for anyone who cares" and since I am not one who cares or understands even a tiny little bit about computer specs I SKIPPED THAT PART. Then, when you said to write the first comment that comes to mind AFTER READING THE SPECS I felt like I'd been caught! Yelp! I didn't read the specs so I have no comment! Okay, here's one, "Knowing you and your Dad I'm sure it's an incredibly fast, powerful, amazing computer even though I don't know what the specs mean." How's that for brutal honesty?

Side note. : )

Computer lingo is probably the 'Only' thing I'm fairly decent with. If you post something about Cooking (Especially) you'll confuse the living daylight out of me...
