Oh you know, another rainy day in the city

Another rainy day in the city. Liked this view of campus.

High Level bridge looking southeast of the city

Had some shredded pork chow mein at Taipan the other night. Tasty as per usual at my favorite restaurant.

And the Portuguese chicken was actually really really good. I was a little choked that they removed the boneless version completely off the menu and took away the beef stew version from the combo menu, but this bone in version actually was quite delicious. Will order again for sure. There wasn’t as much bone as I thought there would be.

I cannot believe the technician at Sony screwed this up this hard. After replacing my LCD because of the white blotches across the center, I received a version that has a ginormous collection of stuck/dead pixels in the lower left corner. So obvious that I simply cannot believe that the technician actually checked the new screen over and didn’t notice this. Ridiculous. Have to send it back, AGAIN. Wonderful.

I also cannot believe that I missed this model from Lenovo. It has been a very long time since I have been really impressed by a model for anything since my VAIO S15, and the Lenovo y400 gaming laptop is it. It has dual SLI Nvidia GT650m cards, which actually hold their own against the Nvidia 670MX. Having dual SLI cards is crazy and the price its being offered at is ridiculous. I obviously don’t game much so this is a huge waste for me- my Nvidia single 640M LE is way way way underspeced compared to this and I barely push the thing in my VAIO. I want to buy this so bad. Really good JBL speakers as well. Easily accessed HDD, RAM and MSATA! If you remove the ultrabay 650M gpu, you could put three drives in this! I love that there are so many drive options here, and I love the dual GPUs even more- at just under a grand CDN! Ridiculous! And I love the subtle black design with striking red highlighted keycaps. SO FREAKING IN LOVE RIGHT NOW. Really do not need another laptop right now. But this one would be it if I did order it. Wow. Image courtesy of my favorite notebook review site- notebookcheck.net
