Oh and as far as important data, I dont keep that on any computer, I keep it on paper or I write it down, if this thing crashes for good, I got my money's worth from it. Shit I paid less for it than my first month of cell phone service. I use it all the time and have probably squeezed about 2 years worth of use into one year. It is a used computer.In my experience, when there is dust in the fan, it bunches up on the fan's cover. The fan can still turn, but the air is not flowing properly.
No I don't put it on my bed when i bank my spunky. It is on a tv tray.
It is gone, even without the dust i really used it night and day far more than the average person. For what I paid for it it was pennies a day for the time I had it. it simply wore out.
I am more concerned with having to return this new one. i am very pissed I cant use Skype on it. I am worried about getting anything with windows on it not pleased with the 10 reviews. I had a nightmare with a Vista tower that gave me the blue screen of death right from the start.
This Chromebook is an open source OS. Everything works great and it is fast, but no Skype outside of chat, even the official Skype website said it only allows for chat on Chromebook.
I need the Skype because I have a friend in Australia who is in a hospital rehab recovering from a a stroke and that is what he has and I am not about to expect him to downoad something else. And it makes me sick that the market competition isn't based on pleasing the customer, but a result of assholes in the boardrooms of Microfuck, Chrome and Skype.
