Toshiba sucks

so last night after i put up the last 2 posts below, i was browsing and reading some blogs when..... all of a sudden, out of nowhere, my laptop screen started looking as if it were fracturing / melting, until the whole screen looked like irregular yellow & black intertwined patterns. and that was that, restarting (i.e. taking the battery out and putting it back in) didnt help. so i calmly shut it, turned the lights off and went to sleep.

if it still refuses to work today, thats it - i'm getting a mac.
