Hi All.

This was long overdue.

Thanks to my father, i was introduced to PC's from ~89. In a commodore 64 form. I had no idea what it was. The paddle game using the single button joystick was extremely fun. I was hooked. He got us 386, 3.5" FDD, 486, p1 166, 8x CD ROM, p2 & Creative multimedia kits,14" microtek color monitor, p3 upgrade, yamaha and sony CD burners, numerous blank discs, Creative awe64, cambridge 4.1, to his last upgrade for us - the p4 1.6 ghz with a 17" monitor with Samsung multimedia keyboard. He gave in to me and my elder bros numerous strikes, lies and what nots.

My eldest brother wanted to buy him a Macbook Pro. well i don't have that kinda money. :@. Told him if u do that, will NEVER EVER forgive you.

He wanted to club the purchase. But i wanted it my own. Just wanted to.

So moved my tablet purchase and got a Toshiba c660. Dad's uses are just browsing, office apps, connect camera and see the pics, voice and video chat.

I earlier bought similar laptop for a friend of mine so knew the stuff and i got a nice deal from letsbuy so went ahead and got one for myself..

I know it might be not equivalent to what some people might gift their fathers. But this means a lot to me. not talking abt the money. :D

So here are the pics. :D

I explained to my DAD how important was a graphic card for running a PARTICULAR Software that was used in college and he got it for me... I also explained to him how critical RAM was for system and needed atleast 1Gb to run basic windows xp on my system as my system was gettin outdated... My dad got worried and bought me a laptop... I still have that laptop with me...
 
Well done buddy.

Well I have a kid who is just 10 year old - I have to wait long for this kind of gift - so sad :( . Wish he grows up quick and surprise me with this kind of gifts :) .
