>Illegal to work?
yes...
Too many hours maybe, but unless you are still in
>elementary school, you could work for Microsoft for all the Gov't cares.
Nope... Hopefully I'll go to 9th grade next year... :)
>And I'm not going to even mention the laptop ;)
Its been dropped on the floor a few times. And beleive me, don't try to
make your own rapid charger from a car altinator... :) Or try to make
your own car cord with a car that puts out 14.5 and a laptio that uses 13
regulated. Or its not a good idea to install Windows 95 since it heats up
the diskdrive. Its also not a good idea to doubble space the hard drive
with a battery...
All these things are done on a Versa V/50... I've had a mac laptop longer,
its gone through even severe punishment... :P
Well, thats not something to even think about bragging... The only thing I
suggest you not do is make your own charger... My battery was getting real
real hot and I almost burnt my hand. Its not even funny... :( The
battery still works.... :)
