WC 1M Post Challenge - You Ready?!

It's going to be 7 years for me in a few months.

Wow! Do you remember how your tech looked at that time?

Yes and Yes.

Yup..Bought a 1TB Seagate ext HD with USB3.0. One terra gig was a huge deal to me then..
I was using a Nokia C7 and switch over to a Lumia 920, which is why I ended up in WC.

I switched from Android to WP and bought a Lumia 521 which I quickly got rid off to get a 810. WP was really ahead of the other two OSes at that time.

Speaking of tech, I have been on and off with the computer search but I think I found one. My brother reminded me that business computers (not necessarily the entry level ones) have a standard to work for that and that would be a good place to look. They are so expensive and out of my price range, but since I care about GPU, battery life and base storage is fine for me, I finally found one. The one version of a model that doesn't get so hot.
I'll have to wait for it to be shipped to me, but it also includes Windows 10 Pro as well. The sale on the site made it accessible to me.

Not as beautiful as XPS but I'll get to have thinner bezels (not all around because Dell seems to only do this for certain lines lol). It's going to be the Dell Vostro 15 inch 5590 with a 10th gen i5, and NVIDIA GPU. The line seems to have heat issues but haven't seen that for this particular model.

My Dell XPS 13 ended up being $1150 for a i7 10th Gen with Iris Plus Graphics, 32GB RAM and 512GB storage. All in all not bad. The machine is a beast. I hate my work issued HP looks like a Pinto when compared to the Dell which is a GT.

That's a great deal! Haha I believe it. I wish I could afford an XPS, I'll just have to live through you.

I love this meme. That's what my grandmother used to say about assumptions.

What colour was your 920? Mine was red.

Nokia 920. Black. The only WP I had before switching to Android.

I came from a blue Nokia N8.

I did like WP but I saw the writing on the wall early on.

I got a black one! My colleague got a red, while another had a 925, which looked super cool. There were another 6 people in the office using WP.... it really felt that WP had traction...

When you say it like that it makes you think. I got here around ‘12 when I got my first WP7. Time does fly.

Them were the days. The white 925 with the chrome band was a nice looking phone.

This has been one cluster **** of a day.

Pretty much all plans I had went out the window.

Earlier this week I seriously contemplated rage quitting...

Not having fun at work? You can always check out those offers you got on LinkedIn.

How is this day any different than any other? Look on the bright side, Monday is right around the corner. :crying:

Thanks for reminding me...

I've had more contacts recently but nothing I want. If the right thing comes along then yeah, I'll seriously consider it.
