Guess what I just got?

Post by Hifeno »

I just got me a new laptop. It is a HP DV7-3165dx. Got it at Best Buy for $779.99. They were really rude to me there. The guy acted like I was a hindrance and I was the one buying a expensive computer. But otherwise excellent purchase. I love this thing so much. And the built in blu-ray is awesome. This thing runs like a top.

So why did you buy it there? You could've taken your cash and purchased it elsewhere.

Probably a mix of best price and the closest place that had that model.
Was it one of the ones that Geek Squad got their hands on before you bought it? They don't do anything bad, but I really want to buy a laptop from them so I can demand a sealed box. Doesn't really matter, I just like the stuff I buy new to be truly new (and to make a scene).
Anyways, congrats. New computers are always fun. Only problem is they can make all your older systems seem extra slow.

I just got a laptop too!! 'Cept it's ten years old and came with Windows Me. So I installed Puppy Linux on a new partition. Works pretty well. :)

I am looking to buy a good laptop for online college classes. Can you tell us the specs? Like the weight, RAM, GHz, etc? Thanks

I only bought it there because of price and availability. And yes it was a seal box. I would not let geek squad touch my computer.
