in answer to your question, my gen 1 PS2 (the big brick like one). she, much like Xavier, was there for me to banish boredom when ever it reared its head. with her at my side i was able to lay low armys of monster, demons, the undead, and what ever else. she was there when i lead the demon hoard to march on Heaven (SMT: Nocturne ending), she was there when i stopped Albert Simon, Kato Masaji, and 'Lady' from bringing about the end of the world (Shadow hearts 1,2 and 3) as well as my less reputable work as a Raven (Armored Core). it was sad the day i discovered she no longer had the strength to continue (no longer reading disks) but time had finally caught up with her, it was just her time.

It's actually going to be kind of hard getting rid of him. I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet. I'll save the hard drive of course so I don't lose all my saves (huh, I just realised I guess I could view that as some form of reincarnation, or something...) but as for what to with the rest. I'm not sure I could bring myself to smash it, or throw it unceremoniously in the rubbish.
Me and my brother have both got (relatively) new laptops, and my Mum has her netbook, but my Dad still uses the old family desktop which dates back to 2002. Now that is outdated. He's just the sort of guy who will literally never replace anything until it's beyond repair (although I'd argue that when it takes twice as long just to boot it up than whatever you were planning to do once you got on it because it's grown so wheezy in it's old age, then it's best for all concerned to put it out of its misery).ExiusXavarus said:
That's only a cycle and a half more outdated than my own laptop.NinjaDeathSlap said:
Which isn't saying much since everything PC is outdated in 2 years, anyway. My laptop's still kickin' pretty hard, though. It only takes about...15 or so seconds to boot. Maybe not even that.
I'm a lucky bastard I guess.
My brick of a gameboy died the same way. I'd taken very good care of it over the years; no scratches on the screen, the tech support sticker on the back faded by still in tact. Then I put it down one day with intentions of going back only to pick it up one day to find it inoperable with decaying batteries in the back. Though it still wasn't my first, my first one was stolen by this little girl who came to one of my sister's slumber parties when we were kids. I keep this one around just because I couldn't bare to throw it away, but I went to ebay and picked up another one for $25. It's far more beat up than the last, and I'm pretty sure it's screen is slightly on the fritz but at least I can pop in Kirby's Dreamland whenever I want to.Shanicus said:
