next comic

[01.31.01]

(so. after today's update was done, dillinger sends me a different comic and tells me to post it. so of course, since i've already put up the new wallpaper, it no longer applies. once again, ladies and gentlemen, the triumph that is the two-man comic team has brought you more nonsensical ... yeah. back to the previously written news...)

so for those of you who don't believe my death of the new economy stuff, check this shit out: even amazon.com is laying people off in a desperate attempt to reach profitability by the end of the year. that goes double for my mom, who when i first started ranting about the decline of the dotcom, all she could do was say "well amazon.com is still in busines", to which i deftly responded "well duh". well, it's still in business, but even the big boys are feeling the crunch. excite@home is losing money in the billions... but anyways..

dill warned me i wouldn't be able to fill all this space up, and i've got to tell you, today i don't feel much like filling all this space up. so what i'll do is once again recap on all the promised additions to this site, that are really, truly, in the works:

a store
quotable icq
more wallpaper
dillinger art
another survey

well, at least i can finally follow up on one of those: dillinger sent me new wallpapers like a month ago.... lmao. here they finally are. and i must say, they definately kick mucho assahollio.

in other, non-website related news, i have decided to definately, yes, for sure, buy a laptop. i'm scouring the new for deals, and microwarehouse.com seems to be one of the places that has some good deals, although the warranties are never more than 1 year. anyone out there (who actually reads this mess) have any advice for me on where to pick one of these bad boys up? here's what i'm looking for:

high end celeron or a pIII (pIII preferred)
at least 13 inch display (that's a minimum)
128 megs ram
at least 6 gigs hard drive space
usb support
ethernet adapter
dvd would be very nice
some sort of adapter to plug a modem into a cell phone?! that'd kick ass.
maybe now i'm getting a little carried away...

but that's sort of the idea i'm working with now... sony's vaio line seems pretty impressive, albeit it very pricey, so i'll probably stray from those... and i don't really mind getting one used. i'm looking to keep costs as low as possible here, although i'm sure it's hard to tell that from the above wishlist... anyways, if anyone has any suggestions or knows someone selling one or whatever, let me know. thanks a lot.
