I would gladly sacrifice a new pc for NOT having to have a godamn thing to do with installing a new floor. I have done it 3 times (once ceramic tile.. uch) in the pas year and a half and i NEVER want to do it again. i feel for you. Spend the cash, get a pro to do it, drool from affar for a while.
I wont get a new pc until long after Bree has a new one. Mine is custom built (by me) 3 years ago, while hers was bought for her by her deadbeat father 6 years ago as a "can i kiss your ass now and have a father daughter thing, even though i havent been around for your life, ever" gift. its held up remarkably well (a good mark for Gateway), but is showing its age now. She will probably get a laptop, especially since we have anice shiny new wireless router these days.
I may be able to convince her to let me drop some cash on a hardware updgrade... a new motherboard, video card and processor should do me well. not to mention a retail copy of vista... should only set me back ....
$1500 at the beginning of the year... Maybe not....
