Yeah, I don't just want the new PC Gamespot is giving away... I NEED IT!! It's been a long time since my last blog post and I've been through a lot since then. My old gaming rig got stolen, I got arrested a few times, and I was homeless for a while (over 4 months), but it seemed like a long time. :(

Of course, now I live in a sober living home, I'm back in school and I have an HP mini 1000, which is barely fast and powerful enough to run Windows XP. My current netbook (mini laptop) just doesn't cut it. It's small and very portable, but has a slow processor (Intel Atom 1.6 Ghz), less than a gig of ram, an integrated graphics card, a 16 GB solid state hard drive, and it doesn't even have a disc drive. The only games I can run are NES, SNES, Gameboy Advance and surprisingly N64 mods. I not only need that shiny, new PC for school and programming, but I need it to play my old PC games as well as Crysis and Star Wars: The Old Republic when it comes out. I simply can't afford to buy a new PC, so I'm stuck with my HP mini for now, which I use to check Gamespot daily for reviews, previews and movies of all the games I want. Please, give me the new PC. :)
