I hate my notebook

So as the title says, I hate my notebook. It never does as it's told, I have like 50GB free space and it's convinced I only have 500MB. It decides whether it wants to connect to my modem or not and it always cuts out, I wouldn't mind if I was mega far away from the modem but I'm like 6 foot away from it. The download speed disgusts me, on my desktop I can get download speed up to 3MB per second but on my notebook I can only get 200KB per second, and the upload is crud I only get 70KB per second. My search indexer is about as useful as a used tampon, it always has an error and it's easy to fix but still it shouldn't do it. I've done so many scans and there are no viruses what so ever, I defragment it every Sunday and I do a disk clean up every Wednesday. I clear my browsing data every 2 days, but still it insists on being a turd. I might just throw it down the stairs and get my mum to buy me a new one.

Here's my suggestion: don't get a Mac, buy a new notebook or build your own desktop, with Windows 7 on it.
Try reinstalling your OS first though, everyone can do it. Yes, that includes you and your dog.

unless you have an industrial-strength magnet (enough power to lift the whole notebook off the floor) then it won't do crap to your notebook.

Funny you should say that, at college I have a dirty great big magnet that has disgusting amounts of magnetism. I don't think that's the right word but I can't think of the right one.

Just because I'm not old enough that doesn't mean I don't do it ;). Plus I have confidential information stored on my computer.

Seriously.

I've decided to get a new Windows 7 laptop. Maybe a Sony VAIO. I miss XP I never had any problems with it until it blew up in a lightning storm.
