14 signs - you're nuts!!

post #1 of 22
Thread Starter 
1] You wake up at 3:00 am for a bathroom break and see your Sager on the desk - 10 minutes later you're still on your way to a blissful release

2] You check your mail at 4:00 am after the release and again at 8:00 am before another release

3] To break the monotony of this endless cycle of releases and forum lurking - you keep running 3D Mark 2001 SE

4] Before you run 3D Mark 2001 SE, a reasonable number of times a day just touching triple digits, you defrag your hard disk - clean your registry - uninstall and re-install drivers - shutdown and restart the system - close all background tasks and then settle down to wait for the score...

5] Each time you get a score you crib about it after lurking on the forums and then you do a little overclocking to look better than that annoying ass on the forums with a higher score

6] You have till date re-installed your OS enough number of times for it to be permanently burned into your hard disk and Microsoft contacts you with a position in their testing facility in California

7] You tell your girlfriend to use the side of the bed thats away from the computer desk

8] You leave your desk and go to your friends room to crap so that the Sager's fans dont suck it up

9] You wash your hands each time you sit down to use the system and you keep wiping them to remove all traces of contaminating DNA that could foul your Sager's innards

10] You keep cleaning the laptop more often than you brush your teeth or take a shower - who cares as long as your hands are clean??

11] You place your laptop in its case and place your case in a plastic bag to stop it from getting dusty

12] You look at everyone with a suspicious look and you slowly start to lose your friends - who cares - you've got a Sager

13] You write more letters to Adam at PC Torque and type more lines of nonsense on the forums than you write to your parents who are eagerly waiting for news from half way around the world.

14] You post a message like this and let everyone know just how nuts you are to be telling everyone what they're doing anyway...

Somebody stop me!!

I got "LOW" in everything except Narcissistic ("MODERATE") and Obsessive-Compulsive ("MODERATE") - does this mean I'm pretty boring, or what?

Of course, I am married with Children, and this test seems aimed at singles w/o kids...

Thank god...

At least you dont have a result like the one I got - your family can feel safe in that knowledge

add a few points as requested hee hee

15] Spouse's Dell sits near the fireplace or in the fireplace as a result of the new arrival

16] You spend hours configuring on PC Torque just to reassure yourself that the prices havent gone down yet (though they have)

17] You spend your tax returns on screen upgrades

18] You stage a burglary and claim insurance that promptly goes towards the 5670 savings

19] You eat Ramen noodles and drink tap water for a few months till you have enough for the new 5670

hmmm....

Prices down.

While waiting for my 6160 to arrive, (2 more days), I was looking at the Sager site and noticed that the machine I ordered now has:
60 GB HD instead of 40
and
a P4 2.66 GHZ Chip instead of a 2.4

Grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!1

What's a feller to do ?

Also...now the 6160S has the same the 6160V had when I ordered on the 22nd, at about a hundred bucks cheaper.

Grrrrrrr!!!!!

It'll never stop. You can't catch up so I reckon I wont worry about it. (hahaha)

LOL! I'm doing this too, but with a Toshiba 2400 and for an entirely different reason. I always hated it and knew I would be getting rid of it, and wanted it to look nice so I'd get more $$ for it when I sold it! My new 8887 is arriving soon!

24. You have turned the guest bedroom into a $80k cleanroom for your sager. Everyone who enters the cleanroom must follow your 30 step guide to properly suit up. Every 8 hours you begin the chore of cleaning your cleanroom which takes 2 hours to do.

25. You have spent another $20k for a portable cleanroom for those occaisons where you must travel.

I am getting worried

Jeez!! all along I thought I was crazy - you guys beat the living crap out of craziness!!

I am getting worried spending so much time among such admirable loons will damage my brain!!

Still - i'd rather stay here and get brain damage than go to the dell forums and suffer logical circumcision, castration and molecular disintegration.

You guys may be crazy but you're still the best!!

post #18 of 22
Eck... logical circumcision. That's just not right!

but it is scary!!

its like they lobotomize you brain and remove all the grey matter associated with logic and reasoning.

Heck - if they can make someone buy a bomb! (thats what the 8200 and other explosive laptops are) then their forums has to be doing a good job

post #20 of 22
The 8200 is not a bomb. It's the worst computer I've ever owned though. I returned it pretty much immediately when I realized that I couldn't move the mouse and use the keyboard at the same time (goodbye games). I mean, how stupid!
