Default Ok guys and girls, I just *have* to boast...

So there I was in work minding my own business sorting out the mountainous pile of buggered laptops in the back when I stumbled across a box that I had seen knocking about for a while but never looked in. Inside there was this:




Its a dual-core Turion 64 X2, 1Gb RAM, 100Gb SATA HDD, 14.1" WXGA Screen, webcam etc.

After a little bit of investigation and some testing, I discovered that a) the laptop was fully working and b) it would cost me £62.99 to buy. At the moment I don't have £62.99 but my parents do

Result!

No no, Staples. Head Office occasionally make mistakes on things, this is one of them I cleared it with my boss etc so there is no way it can come back and bite me in the ass.
