Default The X Rocker
FYI:

I was in WalMart earlier buying necessities and I happened upon The X Rocker.



Not the most stylish piece of furniture but it looks fun for gaming.

Heh, yeah I've seen those before. Makes a perfect crib with a notebook. Hey, those are stereo speakers built in, eh? No thanks, I prefer headphones.

Bed Bad & Beyond offers them, too (non-stereo speaker version). Hoping to get a classic beanbag chair myself.

Look what they suggest to go with it:

Quote:


Complete the Look: IC Power 15" Laptop, 1.6 GHz Mobile AMD Sempron 2600+
$568.00
Sempron processors are too weak for hardcore gaming. I'm making sure my notebook will have Athlon.

Yea, I don't know what the sound would be like. With headphones, it's really crisp and you are immersed.

You must be American or something. And you've just insulted, like, 3/4 of the world.

There. In your next life you're coming back as a Celeron processor. Enjoy.

You asked for it. But there's still room for salvation. If you behave as a Celeron, there's a chance I'll let you be a Sempron next life after that.
