Yay!
« on: June 01, 2006, 08:02:31 pm »
I just got my laptop in the mail today!  I love it!

It's an HP Pavilion dv1650.  This is the site for the specs and what not if you are interested:
http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/store_access.do?product_code=ET730UA%23ABA&template_type=product_detail&aoid=32835&jumpid=oc_R1002_USENC-001_HP%20Pavilion%20dv1650us%20Notebook%20PC&lang=en&cc=us

I am so excited!! I can't wait to get Linux on here too!

I think the college I am going to actually wants us to have SP2.  They sell that on all their laptops. 

But, why not SP2?

Perhaps, but since you can turn off the paranoia features and it's required for Visual Studio 2005, I've upgraded.  It's worth it.

It also screws up a bunch of programs.

What? My windows start up has never been faster since I upgraded to SP2. None of my software runs slower or faster because of it.

Additionally, I know Counter Strike, SP2, and my hardware don't go well together. Remember my other thread about my counter strike crashing problem? It was because of SP2.
