Ouch

I just made my wallet even thinner. I ordered a HP dv4-1117nr from Best Buy just now. I had no choice. My Toshiba Satellite needs to retire soon. It's bulky and heavy for transporting. It overheats like crazy, causing it to shut down, and me to lose any unsaved data in session. The screen sometimes will not turn on/suddenly turn off. My charger is giving me problems. It is INCREDIBLY loud, and no the speakers aren't, but the fan are. Just the other day, I took it to one of my nursing classes, started typing on word, and BAM. The fan speed went up to compensate for the overheating, and the two classmates sitting in front of me started to look around to see where "that loud noise" was coming from. How embarrassing.

But yeah, what else could I have done? The Toshiba is about to be four years old. I have went through two cooling stands, and yet, it still gets hot. For comparison, it is MUCH louder than a powerful/gamers desktop.
