Its a sad day
Well first let me tell u the background on this computer. Its an HP pavilion dv4165cl. Ive now had it for 3 years. And i have used it, as in really used it. At any given time i can have photoshop, firefox, msn messenger, aim, AVG, Roboform, iTunes, Windows media player (Yes, i do have them open at the same time, i prefer to play music using WMP, and i just use itunes for my ipods ), Outlook, Azureus, And the occasional Limewire downloads. This machine has been great until now. 87 Gb out of 90 are used up, sadly.
It needs a new mobo b/c the powerjack is broke (well not completely, it needs a little wiggling to charge, but any other slight wiggle will stop charging).
Its starting to randomly fail CD burns.
The screen is starting to become a whole lot dimmer than it used to be.
The mousepad (dunno what its called on a Laptop) is becoming very VERY jerky, which annoys the **** outta me
The speakers have died. All u can hear from them is khshshhshss (lol)
I love this thing. Its taken me through thick and thin.
Now i just haveto convince my dad that i need a new comp
PS. Is three years too short or is it average? My dads dell died 3 months after it was bought (LOL), and so did my brothers.
