HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx

So here’s what I got:

dv5-1235dx

HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx

I would have loved a MAC, but look at the comparison with a refurbished Macbook:

@$1000 Macbook: 13″ Screen; 120 GB Hardrive; 1 GB RAM + I’d have to buy the MAC edition of Office

@$720 HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx:  15″ Screen; 320 GB Hardrive; 4 GB RAM

In sum: I went with a 2-3x more powerful machine for $300 cheaper!

If I had the money I would have went with a MAC, but hey, I’m a poor college student.

PC or MAC?

So my cheap Acer laptop died yesterday (it served its purpose, though I had planned it to last a bit longer), something to do with the motherboard…

Anyways, now I’m looking for new laptop, and I’m faced with the nearly three decade long debate: PC or MAC? Mind you, funds are low, so that has a lot to do with my decision…got any recommendations? If you say PC, which one?

Come back to see what I get within the next day or two…

Hydrogen Peroxide

February 13, 2009 William Molenaar 2 comments

hSo, the New York Times says:

Does hydrogen peroxide really make a difference?  According to most studies of its effectiveness, not really. Parents and school nurses might insist otherwise, but researchers have found that hydrogen peroxide has little ability to reduce bacteria in wounds and can actually inflame healthy skin cells that surround a cut or a scrape, increasing the amount of time wounds take to heal.

I was raised using this stuff for all my scraps and cuts, and now I find out that all that agonizing stinging sensation, which I believed was a worthwhile sacrifice for a better good, was actually bunch of junk!  I’ve been liberated from hydrogen peroxide, and now you are too!
