when you buy a new one arent the stores over there boudn by law to recycle the old one? thats our way in germany.

sadly efficient laptops dont work well with “powerwork” such as music producion etc. too slow! even on my desktop I have to switch energysave OFF to get my studiotools to work properly. no other way. But I have energysave ON when I am doing other stuff.

Laptops use 10% of the power desktops do.

I like the intro, Hank. Very awesome.

its disgusting how he burps at the end, and he thinks he is disclosing some very genius stuff- which he is not. Commonplace stuff, and see how he is so proud he is imparting us that million dollar knowledge. Gnarrrrrrr.

Great video. I have an old Acer Aspire that I may part out to purchase a new camcorder to make some better videos for YouTube. Thanks

Hank that was wicked cool. I have an old T-40 from IBM. I am recycling it soon as it gets unpacked, I never knew what to do with the damn thing! Thanks so much and keep it going!
