A New Laptop!

I know I haven't been around very often lately, but I'm about to have a lot of content coming out since Spring Break is next week. Anyways I wanted to do something nice and short. I got a new laptop today, not by choice. I'm not sure what happened to my laptop. I went to get it this morning to pay bills and it turns out that the screen was completely shattered! I don't know what happened to it and I mean I could've dealt with it and kept on working with it. However, my laptop was a glass touchscreen computer. For anyone who has ever had a laptop like this and dropped it then you may know what this can mean. For me anyways my clicker/mouse kept bouncing around the screen. It took me so long just to sign into my laptop since the mouse kept clicking me around the screen and off of the textbox for my password! It was so frustrating. But once I got into the computer it calmed down somewhat. However, it was so frustrating.

I had two things running through my mind while trying to get somethings off my laptop in a worst-case scenario, which was one can I just get the screen fixed and if so how much and what was I going to do for my class this week where it is completely computer-based. Well, my fiance told me just to go to Best Buy and figure out what they can do. So I get ready and run to the store as fast as I can because I still have a class tonight. While I was there both the computer guys and Geek Squad told me that it would be between $300-$600 minimum to fix it because it was a glass screen and it would've taken too much work for it to be any cheaper. If I would've gotten the same laptop that I already had it would've been $700. So I knew I needed to get a new computer but since I'm not the most careful human being I decided that I needed something that wasn't glass, which means probably not touch screen. Which is fine, but I wanted to pay a little more for something that will last a lot longer for me. Well, as soon as I saw this keyboard I knew I had to have it. But the price kept me from saying yes on the spot. I kept looking at it and a Dell which was only $200 difference between them, which is a  whole lot of money! Plus I didn't really have the money or plan to splurge on a new laptop at the time.
