are you thinkin\' about movin\'? with so many people bein possibly involved, i think i would have to bounce....either that or kick one of the said person\'s teeth in...i\'ve been to cincy years ago...went to a jazz concert out at the stadium over there...pretty nice city....



Yeah, I\'m moving at the end of august.

Apparently they have video of the guys at a local UDF where they used my roommate\'s credit card.  They also recovered our bookbags.  I\'m still not getting my hopes up about my laptop but it\'ll be nice if we catch the bastards.

Oh and I\'m getting a nifty $2200 check in the mail from insurance so it looks like I\'ll be laptop shopping here in a few weeks.  Any suggestions?  I\'ll be looking to spend in the ballpark of 2800 on one seeing as it\'ll be used to do a lot of rendering/photoshop work.

that\'s a pretty bloated budget for a laptop.  You could get a great lappy for rendering photoshop for under 1500... but then again I don\'t have a 2200 check in the mail coming my way either ;)

I\'d wait a few weeks if you can for the Core 2 Duo to come out.  Outperforms the Core Duo by about 15% or so and isn\'t any harder on battery life.

I\'ll be using cinema4D as well plus it would be nice to have a good gaming rig set up too seeing as I don\'t have a home PC nor would I have space for one.

Speaking of which, someone broke into my car lastnight, went thru everything and TOOK NOTHING.

Fuckin\' illegals, I bet.

Seriously though, it\'s creepy beyond belief. To know someone was right outside my door, while I was asleep.
