New Laptop! woooo

First of all. Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. School started and when I am not doing school work, I am doing work work. So, I have been very busy lately. Anyway, on to the laptop.

I purchased a Sony Vaio at Best Buy for around $1100 (on sale). I figured this would be the best way to go. With a laptop I can pretty much work wherever I want… as I am not home very much at all.

The model number on the laptop is: VGN-FE660G

Vaio

Specs:

Processor: Intel® Core™ Duo processor T2300 (1.66 Ghz)
Ram: 1 Gb
Hard Drive: 100 Gb
Screen: 15.4″ XBRITE Widescreen
Graphics: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 with 128MB
Multiformat DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with double-layer support

So, it is basically equivilant to an expensive macbook

Right now I am dual booting Windows XP Media Center and OSX Tiger.

My wireless card doesn’t currently work in OSX because OSX doesn’t have a driver for the Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG. So, I bought a Dell TrueMobile Mini-Pci card for it that I have yet to install. I need to open it up.. so wish me luck in not breaking my new toy.
