Do you get made fun of Legendary? Your room is a mess. At least Snave keeps his room clean. >_>

I have an outdated TV, ipod speakers, outdated computer with decent video card, keyboard, enormous monitor, and awesome Fostex Digital 8-track recorder. Do I fail? A little.

Your McJob was able to purchace all your McStuff? for your McMonth or so there you sure did work non stop to be able to earn all that McMoney...Unless you get those "allowances"...That or you killed a lot of people after they changed their will :P

Mine will be a laptop:
80gb hdd (too much for me :?)
1gb RAM
14"1' screen (enough for me)
9 cell battery, meaning 8 hour battery life for those of you playing at home.
2.5kg (since you guys like having a system which makes every small value like a kilogram seem much larger one like a pound, I think it converts to roughly 5.8 pounds but I'm not sure)
Vista Home Premium
Dual 1.78GHz processor
And possibly mac osx if its compatable with my computer...If I'm able to aswell...

McMoney paid for about half of that, the rest was from a job I got after McJob. Don't tell anyone what the first McJob was though, it's kinda embarrassing.
