    A computer store near me has this wall of motherboards, so cool.

    And just look at all these Linksys WRT series routers!

    Probably acquired them when someone ran outta business.

    They've been around for a while and love to collect like me, so we get along quite well.

    Ahh, are these on sale BTW, the routers, esp?

    They're mostly for display in the shop, but maybe if I asked really nice.

    Here's my setup for the big RackNerd thread of 2021 :D

    Woah, that's impressive, man. That green lit keybaord an HP Pavillion gaming?

    Yeah that's my 2019 HP 15Z, Ryzen 5 1050ti. Not a bad little rig for $450!

    "Not a bad" is an understatement. That laptop had great thermal management (both hardware and software) for the price it retailed for.

    Oddly enough the reviews from Best Buy said the exact opposite, but I snagged it anyway and mine is excellent still to this day. Probably fixed the cooling issue with a BIOS update by the time I purchased it, I guess the fans weren't kicking in when they should have been?

    I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 on it with no problems when it released, when people with much higher end hardware were complaining of constant problems, so I was happy with my choice.

    I see, maybe you got one of the very first generations. Pavillion series you own was later famous among gamers for badass thermal management.

    My first laptop was compaq. 2GB ram, pentium. 5kg weight.

    Whatever happened to Compaq?!

    Absorbed by HP.

    Yup. That was solid laptop though. Service was also good at that time.

    I have an old Compaq sitting in my mom's garage somewhere, probably only a handful of years newer than that IBM Thinkpad. I should go get it and see if she will still boot.

    I think it will. Mine still turns on. Screen damaged but can see some gibberish on it.

    Still own the old Compaq? Remember how much you got it for?

    Not working. Just have it in a box. I think I got it for 32K at that time.

    Didn't know laptops were that cheap in those days.

    Cheap? Noooo. 30k was big amount at that time. Dont forget the inflation.

    What year?

    TrK is so hyped now, he won't be leaving the first spot for anyone

    Anyone hoping for the laptop needs to grab it from him, but, he's extremely competitive and that's understandable.

    I'm here.

    Go for it then..

    Let's go go for it don't give up

    Anybody who gave up- too soon. Take xpress' example. Learn from him.

    Am i that much behind? :o

    No, pardon me if I gave that impression. I was just talking about your spirit. Nothing can stop you from reaching that laptop, despite your busy schedule.

    He's a professional at this, so he knows slow and steady wins the race.

    I am like retired professional competing with young guys.. 🤣

    Retiree making a re-entry. Cue music.

    🤣🤣

    Feeling like Dhoni?

    Definitely not. 🤣

    Feeling like he's gonna get the lappy

    Cece is like, Dad why did you buy such an expensive laptop? :p

    Babe its to gift our beloved xpress. B)

    :D

    You get the Nitro, you ain't touching my Strix. :p

    Next year maybe, we will have a Strix in the pool.

    If business is good, maybe I'll upgrade and offer up my used one next year in some kinda of raffle. Would be easier to get a used model through customs I imagine!

    What if I shipped it all torn apart, and the winner had to assemble it? :p

    Our customs still charge on it may be. They do unexpected things. :D

    Yup, they might even charge it as a new product.

    They do?

    Have heard of stories of that happening as well. Don't have personal experience of this specific thing though.

    I hope we don't have to see anything like that. > @noob404 said:

    He's on the lappy again?

    Have one month to catch up..

    Indeed, people might not give in.

    You'll see more people join after holidays.

    Yah, that's what I am hoping for.

    More competition .. let them come..

    Yup. Let's hope more people will join soon.

    I don't want more competition to my lappy

    Hahaha, you'll face resistance

    We all face it, but need it as well to engage.
