Title: Just ordered a new laptop
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 13 May 2019, 15:27:31
 I wanted a reasonable processor and SSD.

Found a £50 online voucher, so £549 including free delivery.

I await the OOF ritual slagging off....... :)

I hope it is robust enough to survive impact  with walls and floors.. ::)

I'm really impressed that you spent more than a tenner. How's your Chinese phone going?  ;D

My phone is Microsoft and cost £55 from your mates at Barnsley council.

When I told them the box had been opened the very nice man let me have it for free.


Remember?..... :)

I have an old non working laptop that appears to be in good nick that you can have for a reasonable price, so you can leave it lying around in case Mrs Opti feels the need...  :)

The only up side to women with a ' bunny boiler ' mentality is that they are very good between the sheets.

Yes. But as Groucho Marx once said "Making love to your wife is like shooting at sitting ducks".  :(
