New laptop

So my old laptop has had some issues for a while now. You have to balance something on the power cord and position it at a particular angle for it to connect, it has practically no battery life, and sometimes the screen goes blank and you have to hit Function + F6 a bunch of times until it finally flickers back to life. I figured it was probably time to get a new laptop even though I'm still very attached to my old one. Devin had ordered me a new one a while ago after I said yes and then I got it in the mail and took one look at it and instantly disliked it. Devin, being the understanding and wonderful husband that he is returned it for me. That was before the screen started blanking out. The black screen gave me the extra motivation to actually get and keep a new laptop. I found one I liked for only $330 at Best Buy and bought it from the store on my way to Zumba. It's a charcoal gray 15.6" display HP with AMD E-Series Processor and 3GB memory. When I got home I turned it on and there were green lines going through a blue screen of death. I turned it off and on again and it did the same thing. Today I took it back to Best Buy and exchanged it for a working computer. Now I'm working on installing all of my programs, software, etc. I haven't come up with a name for this laptop yet but I'm still working on it.
