My boyfriend and I stumbled upon a high school that was recycling lightly used laptops and other sorts of expensive computer equipment. He managed to "liberate" a lot of really amazing tech-geek stuff before they caught on and made us leave. Keep in mind, many of the hundreds of computers that they had were going to be crushed and destroyed!
So, I have a new, free, fully functional laptop. Now I can use my laptop savings on something else (Car, Finishing My Tattoo, Etc.)! Perhaps it will also make me more likely to post more on deviant art? We'll see.
Love, Ariel
