So, I'm pretty sure one day the AC Adapter for my laptop is gonna explode. It's cracked, swollen, and pealing, plus it always gets crazy hot. Oh well. Just as long as I'm not around when it happens, I could care less. :) My original charger never did that, but the two replacements I've gotten have gotten all messed up within a few months of use. I guess that's why I was able to get them for only like 5 or 10 bucks online, cause their faulty. I'm intending to get a new laptop for either my birthday or sometime during the summer, hopefully this same problem doesn't arise. Definitely gonna get a completely different type of laptop though. I'm thinking a Sony Vaio, their super cute, reliable and inexpensive. :) I love my laptop, but it's not good for travel, it's way to heavy. The 17 inch screen is amazing to watch stuff on, but my screen is also damaged internally so I know eventually its gonna stop working and go out completely. And when that happens I'm either gonna take a baseball bat to my laptop, or break it in half with my bare hands. Haha If it's gonna go out me, it's gonna have to take a beating. Haha Just kidding.... maybe. ;)
