Hey, Well before I bought a new laptop, I kid you not I was using an 800MHz, 128MB RAM, 10GB H.D.D laptop and I could NOT take it any longer. If you haven't tried to run Windows XP with only 128MB RAM then I somehow advise you do so. You will go mad! Anywayz the main reason I bought my new computer for was because of school work. I couldn't really go on like that for the rest of my schooling career, or it would have taken me hours longer to complete my assignment since Microsoft Office 2007 struggles to run on a computer with 128MB RAM. So schooling was the main reason, but I do use my laptop for other reasons such as playing games, surfing the Internet, downloading movies, listening to music, chatting with people on MSN, and the list could just go on and on.

I have to ask my parents to buy me a personal laptop with good specs because aside from using it for school works, even though I'm not into any computer related courses, I love to explore it and learned reformatting and all. I also love photo and video editing and as well as collecting new softwares and testing it in my laptop. I also sort of gain from this financially because of photo editing and light scribe CD burning and as well as using the new softwares in reformatting other laptops or desktops.

I bought my computer to play games. But when I got my internet connection I found out that I can do a lot of thing with my computer plus internet. Now I don't use my computer solely for games anymore.

I had bought my desktop computer many years back because I needed to work on my projects etc. in the computer.I had also bought a scanner for the same purpose. Recently, about two years back I upgraded it to a laptop because I started working and freelancing and needed to carry my work along wherever I go. Also I need to get net connection. Thus owning a computer-desktop or laptop, is entirely functional for me like you. And I am sure its the same with everyone else.

The very reason I bought this computer is for my work. I conduct lectures and training half of which is through powerpoint presentation and videos. Well, my laptop has been a perfect partner and has really helped me with my work.

Educational purpose, I have to do my homework and presentations somewhere and I don't feel like being in the computer lab all day. It is much more efficient like that.
