Sweet dude, $60
Too easy.
i suppose.. now i'm thinkin i should've asked for $100 though. the main thing is, i guess, is that you have to literally tear apart a laptop to get to the motherboard; pulling off the keyboard, everything. and new motherboards for my laptop retail at around 200 bucks. totally not worth it, imo. used broken ones i guess go anywhere from 40-80 bucks. i dunno, maybe i ripped myself off.
edit: and the question is, did you read it as "white-uh-bonics," "white-bonics," or "white-E-bonics"?

Yeah, but here's the thing. You have a working laptop now, and so there's no pressure whatsoever to fix the old one. So it sits there. For a year. Maybe 2. I have an old dead laptop that kicked the bucket 2.5 years ago. I was going to fix it. Never happened
$60 for the win.
Edit: I read it as White-Bonics.

I can't be assed either, this whole week in between the lack of sleep, expensive car things breaking, the 'midnight rabbit homicide' debacle, terminal levels stress, tenants + stupid people... I just can't be bothered doing damn near anything.
In fact I'd walk away from fairly much everything my life right now and probably be much happier for a little while, except for the fact I've seen the other end of the spectrum inhabited with people with nothing and soon realise that being worthless isn't exactly free of stress either.

Time for an emo rant:
I'm so fucking pissed right now. I've been planning to go to Trance Energy this year (yeah, I know, Trance is gay) with 2 friends and they just torpedoed it. One of them doesn't want to book the cheapest flight because he thinks it's dubious and unreliable and the other refuses to pay the 50 Euros extra another flight would cost. So the whole thing is off. FUCK! It's the weekend after I hand in my thesis and that would have been the perfect way to celebrate plus I've been looking forward to it for months and wanted to go for years. SHIT!!! I so angry and frustrated right now, I think I'm gonna kill someone.
Sorry, just needed to say that, never mind my emo shit.
