give it up for who/what exactly? It's not going to collect dust in a corner at home just for the sake of being fair is it?
My little brother doesn't have a computer. It doesn't matter that he's only 11, he MUST HAVE ONE. Also my mother takes great pleasure in restricting my ability to game.Â

And it wouldn't make sense financially to get your little bro a cheap desktop and you a netbook while you keep the gaming rig as well?
You can also tell your parents how helping your little brother build his own computer will [insert BS here].

Not a bad idea, will try but I doubt it will go down well.Â

I meant it as a reason that they wouldn't want to give it to an 11 year old.

Get this, be invincible:

It has a fucking 'stealth' mode and I think it can take a bullet.

The MilSpecs only cover environment compatibility, not bullet resistance =p

I'm hijacking this thread for my own need. I've asked Caff and Kirby already, but I'm looking for a decent laptop for the my 2nd year at uni. Now, Gaming isn't necessary, as I'm bringing my desktop with me. This laptop will basically serve as a note-taking machine, something that I can bring around with me, can surf the internet, watch some movies, and code java on. My budget is <700 CAN with shipping and taxes in.
After a bit of searching, I've found this computer:
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16834220693&RandomID=136881421626825420100526200705
It seems to meet all my needs, is under the 700, and as good reviews.
My questions are, Is this a good choice? Any bad experiences with Asus Computers?

15.6" seems kinda big for just those duties
ASUS has been pretty good to me though
Re: Laptop recommendations - Vlambo - 05-31-2010
I like the size, I like splitting up my screen into sections for multiple things
Re: Laptop recommendations - copulatingduck - 05-31-2010
never underestimate the utility of a larger keyboard
as long as it isn't retardedly huge you should be just fine
Re: Laptop recommendations - Versus - 05-31-2010
giant keyboards are terrible
Re: Laptop recommendations - copulatingduck - 05-31-2010
better than tiny keyboards where i can only use 3 fingers
