If you have a laptop, then you don't really need to use the PC do you? I would have though your parent(s) / rest of the house would be more annoyed. But it does seem a funny thing to do - just when you get a laptop. Sounds like he was miffed at that.

Do you think it's fair that when I got a laptop for my birthday, my brother moved the family desktop into his bedroom? It's getting to me for some reason. He has a big comfy comoputer chair in his room with a computer, and I'm stuck balancing this little laptop on my knee. Am I being stupid?

you should be glad you've got something i suppose :smile:

Plus haven't you got the couch downstairs anyway. Couch is better than comfy chair. Unless we're talking about like.. a really really comfy chair..

v true! lol

I think your being a bit silly to be honest why do you need a desktop and a laptop?? Also, if you have a desk in your room why not put the laptop on the desk and sit at it that way...problem solved :biggrin:
erm... laptops are far more useful than desktops generally. be happy you got one. i hated sitting on a chair in one place in front of a screen whereas now i can slouch on my bed or just be comfortable on a couch when browsing.

Yeah, a laptop's much better, I'd be glad :p: Just get yourself a comfy chair, if it bothers you that much :rofl: But seriously, I have a laptop, had a desktop before and the laptop's much nicer :smile:
i'd have to say grow up.......its not like you have no computer now; nor do you need the desktop now you have a laptop....
sounds kind of petty to me:confused:
I got a laptop for christmas, and then the other computer broke so everyone uses my laptop!! I'd say this is more annoying
lol then get yourself a comfy chair! :biggrin:

Password protect your user name. uh oh looks like no one can touch that laptop of yours. Nobody apart from me has gone on my laptop and hence the password protection so nobody does. My laptop i bought it with my own money so no one is technically allowed to use mine.
