Know what would be fun? Maybe?
A 48 hour LAN party. Drop all responsibilities onto someone else. Set up a gaming rig on an uncomfortable folding table, next to everyone else, in a rented hall. No one leaves. Sleep on the floor under your PC. Eat shit food, Pringles and ordered pizza. Games rotate every 2 hours.
That would be fun. Maybe.

Sounds fun to me, but you forgot at least one thing. LOTS AND LOTS of Gordonopolis homemade beer!GORDON wrote: Know what would be fun? Maybe?

Ah yes, that. I was a little surprised, but I do tend to be unpleasant and off-putting. I ascribed it to that.
Always have Gordonopolis on hand.

Threw my old gaming rig away in the move. Once the year's bonus check hit the account i'm gonna get myself a sexy new gaming laptop. Been wanting to play the Witcher 3 in proper style for a while now.
And, as always, I throw down a gauntlet for all comers in Supreme Commander / Planetary Annihilation, regardless of room i'm in.

It's been long, and long, since someone dared challenge me at SupCom.

It's not a terrible plan.

I nominate the guy recently offered $500/year salary to rent a hotel suite in Vegas and fly us all there.

$500 / yr doesn’t go very far.
Honestly, your idea was always a plan of mine if we/I hit the lottery

What model(s) are you pondering?
Getting a new laptop (for work) that has these specs on a 15.6" screen
Which looks like videocard-wise still puts me way behind a desktop.9th Generation Intel® Core™ i9-9980HK
Windows 10 Home
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 4GB GDDR5

I can't speak from a cost/performance aspect, but having used Lenovo laptops at work for a while now, I've been really impressed with their ability to shrug off drops/spills, etc. Which I'm really valuing because I love wrecking expensive things like that. I've been using a 15 inch screen, but since this won't travel out of the house like my current workhorse, I think the 17 inch is in order. I'll get a docking monitor too.
I tried to play games on a newer Mac Pro that work got me, but I can't get over the button combination for gaming. I hate it. I like my old Macbook better for general use. (porn)

I break every laptop I own. Lenovo, Dell, HP, Asus...
Nice. Yeah, for travel I don't want to go above 15" or 4lbs.
Which screen? Those new 38-49" curved ones are crazy.
