Juarez Was a Man

Well, Juarez was a man of a laptop. Juarez was the sort of laptop that you wouldn't take on a cheap date, you'd take him to a fancy diner with some high-end WiFi, and you would pay for his access to it. Juarez didn't take shit from no-one, in fact one time someone tried to give him shit and he just stabbed the guy using a puppy. Nah, Juarez was a good laptop, Gateway with 512 memory, 1.8 processor, and only something like 30 Gigs of disc space. He was a cheap model, even for four years ago, but I still enjoyed having the freedom of my own laptop. Then there was this day, one fateful day. I set Juarez down on one of those folding desk things so I can call my brother, I heard a crash and I came back into the living room... there Juarez sat, beneath a pile of crap that fell around the same time. I move the pile and I see only half of the screen working. It broke my heart, we went ahead and fixed his monitor, the price wasn't bad and I felt the need to have that internet freedom. I get him back and I live blissfully, for less than a year. You see, there's a fatal flaw with Gateways, or so I have been informed shortly after my experience with it. Gateway laptops' charging pins aren't set properly, and often times completely break off irreparably, this happened to Juarez, may he rest in piece, and may I retrieve my data from his Hard Drive.

So there we go, I told you of the life of Juarez as I had planned to. I hope you enjoyed my tale of woe. I'll see you tomorrow.

Sorrowfully,
Mandog
