  My New Laptop

  I finally got a new laptop for my 15th birthday. I'm using it right now. It's no expensive gaming laptop. Just a basic computing home office one. It's the HP Compaq C700T. So far I love it. Vista is as I hoped, pretty nice despite the harsh talk. Good thing SP1 was preinstalled. I'm glad I went for the 2GB of RAM, I knew I would need it with Premium. It took some time getting all the bloatware completely out of it. Almost two days! There was 120 applications preinstalled before I even touched it. Here's the somewhat decent specs:

  Operating system Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (32-bit)

  Processor Pentium(R) Dual-Core Mobile Processor T2370 (1.73 GHz)

  Display 15.4" diagonal WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1280 x 800)

  Memory 2GB DDR2 System Memory (Dual Channeled) - Two gigs for that Vista

  Graphics Card Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator X3100

  Networking Built in 802.11b/g WLAN

  Hard Drive 80GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive - Yep, that's an 80 you see there. I picked the smallest one becuase I don't really need an enormous amount.

  Primary CD/DVD Drive SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-R/RW with Double Layer Support

  Primary Battery 6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery

  Got Last Halo 3 Skull

  Well, I got Halo 3 for Christmas a while back and while playing through the campaign for the first time, I was determined to get all of the skulls (with the help of GameInformer's Secret Access guide). I got all of them except the silver Cowbell Skull becuase I just couldn't get high enoguh on the grav lift. I tried all different ways; without the grav lift, gravlift plus plasma, etc. Yesterday my XBL was screwed up so I thought to myself, "I'll try for the skull again," (after giving up for a couple months). And you know what? I got it! I looked it up on Youtube and found a video that showed me how to place the grav lift on the ramp and do a "jump-and-grav-lift" move which got me high enough. I now have all the skulls!

  Wow, It's Been a While

  Was is that long since my last blog? Anyway, I'm just blogging to say that I'm still here and I am still on GS everyday. I've been busy lately with school, as well as COD4 and Halo 3. Well, I guess that's it.
