I have Used Lenovo laptops at home for the last 11 years. They have never let me down.

I have used Dell laptops for work for the last 6 years. They seem ok.

I have always heard great things about Asus laptops. My father bought one a year ago and I was impressed by it.

Each company makes a line of cheap shit so just know what specs to look for.

Get a minimum of an i5 processor if not an i7 and at least 4GB of RAM. After that it's all personal preference.
the new asus laptops are really nice, and super slim. My dell is still going strong

I like the Lenovo products, but they are a little pricey (for me)

Yes. That's why I didn't format my drive.

they come packaged in wax paper, you do have to clean the wax off the chain first, but after that, wd40 to prevent rust is good enough. You always find guys that cake chain lube on, or have rear wheel caked with the fling off, not necessary. I have 2 DID ERV3 chains on my bikes and they both look brand new


Re: Wednesday 11/07/2012 - It's over! - Derick - 11-07-2012

and the last most improtant thing about chains. DO NOT USE the master link CLIPS. USE the rivet on where you have to press and flare the pin. The clips will fail.
use this

NOT THIS

I know there are some good deals out there for non-retina display macbooks too.

I had a bad ass go cart, and the chain was always breaking the mastr link clip thing.


Re: Wednesday 11/07/2012 - It's over! - Derick - 11-07-2012

the RK Chain Cutter & Press Fit Rivet Tool is by far the best chain tool out there

If I had a pawn shop, and people were bringing me motorcycles, and motorcycle parts I would say, let me call a buddy of mine, that knows about this stuff, then I would call Derick.

Translate this into a new desktop, what should I look for? Or should I consider a laptop?

Same deal on the memory and processor. We only sell Dell desktops at work so the last time I worked with a different brand was a long time ago.
