Time for a new computer!

[modernwizard]

Not only is my current one cheaply made and of poor quality, but I'm also regularly maxing out my RAM in my pursuit of rendering moderately complex scenes [three people, eight lights, background with as many nodes and geoshells as I can manage]. In fact, my computer has slowed noticeably in rendering speed even in the past two months. 

Dammit -- and I was hoping that this laptop would hold out till Xmas, but I don't think it will. I mean, it will, but working on digital art will be excruciatingly slow for the next two months. :(
