Where are you from ? What was your favorite food you ate today ? <| sep |> I went to sports authority during its liquidation . Employees were tossing frisbee ' s around in the store . Employees answered the phone by saying Hello , this is Dick ' s Sporting Goods . At that point , it didn ' t really matter <| sep |> Might as well just go with Hunger Games , given how many of Walmart ' s cashiers have to rely on government aid to buy food because their employer realized that they could just let taxpayers support their exploitative labor practices . <| sep |> Something something 200 m to partner Kompany something <| sep |> People are sure intolerant of this guys intolerance <| sep |> Unfortunately , it ' s hard to get a good answer in advance . Even if someone has an XPS from two or three models back , it doesn ' t mean that the current model will have the same characteristics . I have fairly good confidence the shell of the XPS will last pretty well . It ' s really hard for anybody to promise you anything about the internals , though . I can ' t guarantee there isn ' t a bad capacitor in there , or that your motherboard will have a bad solder that will take a couple years to come apart , or anything like that . And I ' m not just making things up I ' ve had the bad capacitor in the Capacitor Plague and I ' ve had things develop intermittent connections . Can ' t make any guarantees about the Macbook Pro , either . You may have had a good one , and there certainly are many still floating around that have lasted a long time , but I ' ve also see macs that fell apart after two years . You just don ' t know . If you really care , buy the service plan for whatever you choose . I don ' t have an opinion about which . Frankly in your position I ' d probably lean in the direction of not changing OSes , but I understand there has been a certain amount of dissatisfaction on that front lately . I run primarily a crazy Linux setup so I have no direct experience .
