Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or TheBuddha.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

I often do my own upgrades, so I insist on easy access.

I do not care about my laptops being thin and light. I care about them being robust, more than that. So, I don't buy the ultra-thin laptops.

Hell, many of them now solder the RAM (and sometimes the HDD) to the motherboard, meaning you can't upgrade them at all. Even worse, it means you can't fix them.

Well, you can if you have a reflow soldering station and shit like that... Most people do not own those things.

My son has a laptop with an SD type card soldered to the motherboard for use as the HD.

I am surprised that people buy them.

I don't know why I'm surprised by that, but I am. I find it shocking that people will buy a laptop that only has 32 GB of disk space - and that's total, meaning the OS is taking up a giant chunk of that space.

It's 2021. Disk space is fucking dirt cheap. Buying a fucking laptop with 32 GB of space is fucking stupid, even if you do everything 'in the cloud'.
