Well my good ole laptop called it quits when the plug inside the machine broke off the motherboard...I took it all apart to see and its pretty bad....Tonight I got bored and well...half a$$ed it back together for giggles and it turned on off battery power,...So we took a picture and I loaded it on the net using the thing....and well I'm still on it now...LOL ;D :o

haha that's ace! I had done the same with my mother's laptop when her pin broke off inside the AC hole... tried soldering it back on but dropped solder on a chip and fused the pins and couldn't get it off cleanly.

How you finding Windows 7? I'm loving it.
