So last weekend my friend and I tried to fix my old laptop. The power cord wouldn't charge unless I forced it into a 45º angle, which obviously wasn't good for it. So after some soldering we tried to turn the computer back on and only heard the faint sound of the harddrive attempting to start. RIP PowerBook G3. It was 5 years old, though, which isn't a bad age for a laptop. Anyway, I know there aren't any Mac people here, but I have to show off my new baby:

Relevant Stats:
2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 Ram
160 GB Hard Drive (Not much, but my media files are stored on external drives)
Built-In Video Camera (It took the picture)
The keyboard glows in low-light situations to make it easier to see
Multi-touch trackpad. Dragging two fingers horizontally or vertically simulates a scroll wheel.
The best part is I can finally play computer games again! I have to get myself an XP install disc so I can play the PC games that weren't released for the Mac. Yet another gaming platform I own and will have no time to play!
