Four-Year-Old Gaming Laptop Problems
Mar. 17th, 2014 04:47 pmThe most important kind of first-world problems, by far.
* Too hot for actual lap. Pants potentially on fire.
* Also, possibly too big and heavy for actual lap.
* Battery lasts less than two hours, even when typing in a text editor on most conservative power settings.
* AC adapter cable constantly getting frayed due to its own weight. I just ordered a new one for the second time.
* Fragile plastic chassis that has not coped well with the heat the thing has produced over the years. Two of the teeth in the frame over the fan have cracked off, and there's a spot on the bottom that's a little warped.
* Can't actually run modern games.
