I may have a love affair.

I may have a love affair with my laptop. Not only is it aways by my side during the day, it also comes to bed with me too. Just like any relationship, things can get rocky. I'm not going to give up on something I love. I am going to work through the problems, and figure it out.  Even if it's hardware isn't all the way there anymore, or software needs updating.  I am in this relationship for the long run.

A lot of people don't know this.. but instead of just buying a whole new laptop (jumping into a different relationship.), why don't you try fixing the one you're in? I think it's easier to get dell parts, and fix the problem for cheaper, than it would be to start all over.  To eventually  have the same problems, all over again.  Least now you'll know how to fix it while saving hundreds of dollars.
