Adieu Old Friend

"We'll provide you laptop with an eco-friendly wireless e-campus"... Exact wordings of my beloved Chancellor when I joined engineering. It was way back in 2004 Aug/Sep.
Excitement...Laptop...wireless campus!!!
Most of us never used a laptop before... So, being excited wasn't at all a big deal...
Classes started...no sign of laptop... my God... when will i get my lappy...
(it seemed at that time as if i joined KiiT only for a laptop)
Then, in one fine afternoon, i got my HP nx5000 Intel Centrino Processor 30GB with 256MB RAM laptop.

My joy knew no bounds...i was so happy...there won't be enough words to describe...
Next comes the exploration...adventures what can be done with a laptop... lots of experiment... i got my hard-disc crashed...CD-Drive defunct...charger burnt...

Till six years...i mean till this date I was using the same nx5000.
Afterall, how can you ever forget your first love!!!
It feels today i was emotionally attached to that machine... even though i bought a new laptop... that feeling... that emotional bonding/apnapan i don't feel with my new lappy.
I loved my nx5000 so much...i really really can't get above it...
I might sound melodramatic...but thats the truth.

Old friend, you need some rest. Adieu...
