Similar to my previous post of  “My New *PINK* Sony VAIO“, I am making a new review of my new computer.
My rant is, if you can see that my PINK Vaio was purchased in January 2009, the lifespan of that thing was a mere 1.5 years.  Barely enough time to fully depreciate and after the 1 year warranty, the computer decided to fail on me.  It’s been known that the CS series has an “overheating” problem, hence my coined term of self-destruction of Sony VAIOs.  Basically, my old machine liked …

I’m REALLY REALLY sorry but here’s where I’ve gone (this is going to be a rant for sure…):

35 recognized addresses imported from Gmail
8 selected twitters to follow at setup (sorry about the other 27 but I’m using a radius of influence here)
1 photo uploaded
0 success in finding some people I wanted to follow (does anyone know Matt Mullenweg’s twitter …
