I really hate it these days how the electronics industry builds things to fail. Mobile phones tend to stop working after about two years conveniently just in time for most people to be eligible for an upgrade, and laptops are pretty much obsolete five minutes after you buy them. Do people not make things to last anymore?!!!!! I've had my laptop for a little over two years and have taken pretty decent care of it, and now the wifi connection is going out. I buy the $60 wifi booster and I'm still sitting on the floor next to the x-box physically hooked in to use the internet. Normally that wouldn't be so bad if I didn't spend a great deal of my time online doing something or other. I really don't want to have to invest in a new laptop already. :(
