or

Didn't you have a Blackberry you were selling? You sold it already?


I wish I had that much money, but a Yoga? Out of all the things, a Yoga? :fuckthis:

No I'm still selling the BlackBerry. What ultrabook would you get? All the reviews I read say the yoga is pretty damn good.

$200+ for some bullshit Best Buy warranty? I bet my left nut they are only guaranteeing replacement with a refurbed laptop which you would already be covered for under the manufacturer warranty

Derp, I bought it from Lenovo not BB. For $38 they will cover it for a year and send a tech to your house if there are any problems. Also covers accidental damage so when I throw it against the wall after using Windows 8 they will fix it :D

They won't really send a tech out, HP does the same extended warranty and re-nigs on it all the time.

Neither, Ultra-books are an unnecessary luxury. If you were buying from Lenovo, I'd have picked a ThinkPad, one of those technician and TCI-favored ones, the ones that went up to space and are nearly indestructible when you throw them from a mountain.

Yoga seems to be the best, I meant to say Ultrabook. Haha, still have the blackberry, those will become aids very soon...

Why are ultrabooks an unnescessary luxury? I want a laptop with decent power that is easy to carry around. You talk about unnescessary luxury and then say you would get "one of those technician and TCI-favored ones, the ones that went up to space and are nearly indestructible when you throw them from a mountain." This is very necessary I would love to throw my laptop off a mountain or maybe even out of a moving car on the highway into the path of a highway truck.
:megaderp:

I love my BlackBerry. I've tried Android twice and keep coming back to BB. I get shit done with it plain and simple.
