Ok guys- i got a prob here that might keep me away from the site for a couple of days. Today i was in my backyard with my labtop writeing, i also did a few updates to the HQ (fourm, Vip tickets, news article) - yeah- i love wireless G, but anywho- i decided i would come inside and like a jack ass i dropped my labtop- the screen is half cracked now- so im writeing this to you guys with a secondary moninter attached to it- i just got off the phone with IBM and they said my insurance - thank god- covers such damage to it (yeah i spent 1,500 on a god dam n thinkpad- i should have put in $500 more for an alienware (for school). Not only was the screen broken but the Ethernet jack in the back is also busted. there sending me a box which i have to send my labtop in tomarrow( they said it would be here by tomarrow- fast or WHAT!)
and im shipping off my system.
Now for my internet- i have another computer here at home, i have g5 Power PC, the only prob is my internet www.dybb.com dosent support OS X- so im screwed- the $7000 systemn cant get me online. So sorry guys but im going to be gone for a bit- Good news is though that im getting a new ISP since my contract for these guys is up- im switching over to cable one- which is also a good thing beacuse i can now get online with my G5-
its going to be SWEET!!!
Below are pics of the damage i just took- like now-
its horrible.

Damage done to the Ethernet and 56k- you cant really see it beacuse of the light reflection- it caused the lens to saturate from the amount of light displaced-
Just to wrap it up in Nerd speak
I beat up a Sega Nomad once,
it looked just like that, F*&KED!
I hope you didn`t hurt your foot, LOL.

p.s. It`s BL00dy half three in the morning now so I gotta go to
bed.

yeah- actully i dident hurt myself at all- i would have rather fell and broke my leg or something than the screen to my system. I am sad -_-
Oh well- nothing wrong with a new screen, eh? also i payed them a few more $$ to put more RAM in the sucker (i had 258 in it, now im getting 512 more!)
