To The Rules of the Nation of Myanmar,
Who do you think you are!? Where do you get the authority to stall foreign relief to your own people. The people who YOU are supposed to be protecting and governing... not exploiting for you and your party's own advancement. With rumors coming out of the country that you're soldiers are taking fresh supplies from the relief supplies meant for the PEOPLE of Myanmar, taking it for themselves and then distributing deplorable replacement supplies. (I.E. distributing rotten, insect infested rice in exchange for the fresh rice sent to you by Foreign Aid. If I were in any position of power in your country I would be weary of the very serious threat of revolt amongst your oppressed citizens, AND if I were one of those citizens I would be looking to the nearest arms dealer to arm myself with AK-47s and other munitions to launch revolts against, you, the ruling junta... well I've already wasted enough words on your insignificant minds so I'll just leave it at this... GET OFF YOUR FUCKING FAT ASSES, AND DO YOUR DAMN JOB AS A RULER!
Sincerely,
William J. Deister

Laptop
I got a new laptop last Tuesday, I would have wrote about it sooner but I really wanted to get a feel for this thing before I wrote anything on it. I got the HP Pavilion dv6000, here are the main specs on it:
Windows Vista Home Premium (32 Bit) Operating System
Intel Core 2 Duo
3 GB of RAM
300 GB Harddrive
nVidia GeForce 8400
I know what some of you are going to say, "Ew! OMG! Vista OS wtf are you thinking." Well I have to say from what I've seen of it, Vista isn't half bad, when you boot up the laptop the first time during your first two-three hours of use you'll have a slew of updates coming at you. So far I have not encountered any of the "Vista bugs" that people love to talk about or any little glitches or anything that would irritate me. From what I've seen so far, I like it a lot better then Windows XP in terms of its user-friendly atmosphere, it has this side bar where you can add gadgets that suit your needs or your likes, on mine I have a WinAmp CPanel, a Wikipedia search bar, an analog clock, the temperature and hi-lo readings for my town, two news story feeds one for recent websites I've visited and another for any World News from several prominent news sites as well as a Google search bar and a Notepad for quick reminders and stuff. I really like it, also within the first 3 days it starts knowing your likes and dislikes it starts curving the way it works to the way you work making it even more user-friendly. Who knows though, maybe I have not had it long enough to notice any of the major flaws with Vista but from the time I've had with it I love it. BACK TO THE LAPTOP REVIEW! It works great it handles a heavy work load real well for a laptop, the graphics card is only 1 series below the one I have in my $1200 custom built PC and this laptop cost me $920 (without all the added bullshit you end up buying along with it) so I don't think that's too bad. The sound quality is really great for on-board sound, I have not found any major desire to hook up my surround sound speakers to it at all which is good cause I can't tolerate the on-board sound on either of my PCs. I also have a Dell Inspiron from about 5-6 years ago which still works amazing for it's specs + age. The touch pad is nice, I used to think I'd have to hook up my wireless mouse to it right away otherwise I'd kill myself using this touch pad, but it is surprisingly smooth it works really well and doesn't take to long to get used too. The keyboard is just a few inches smaller then a normal sized keyboard but all of the same buttons are on it just some are crammed onto one key, which to some anal retentive people would be a bad quality. The 15.4" monitor is small compared to what I'm usually staring into with my PCs but it's not that hard to get used to. The battery life could be better, the laptop barely being used only for Web browsing on a wireless connection and moderate chatting dropped it down to 5% in about 2 1/2 hours of use but I can't really say it hurt my opinion on the laptop considering I don't use the battery that much. I definitely recommend this laptop to anyone. But for those of you looking for a more numerical way to see how I'd rate this laptop I'll break it down for you:
I will rate the laptop out of 10, in 4 categories + the overall rating
Display: 10/10
Performance: 10/10
Battery life: 8/10
Cost-Benefit: 10/10
Overall: 9.5/10
There you have it, my review verbally and numerically of the HP Pavilion dv6000
P.S. This model is also made with an AMD Turion x64 Processor, make sure you know the differences before you buy.
