Alrighty, since we are all waiting for chapter 100, maybe you guys can help me out with something.

Okay, I have an HP laptop (windows 8) that is nearly two years old now. I didn't have too much problems with it at first, and I enjoyed it (especially since I just use it for basic web surfing, reading/watching anime/manga, playing around on photo edits, basic stuff). But recently its been a pain in the butt. It started in a few months ago with the fan, I heard a very loud vibrating noise within the fan, cleaned it out with air and it went back to normal. A week after, it's back, repeated the action. No dice, the noise was there. Updated my bios as HP told me to do, no dice. Opened it an did a hand cleaning (funny while it was opened the fan sounded better), that seemed to solve the issue. But two months ago, I started getting fan error messages when I started it up, ignored that and the PC ran fine. Now, I'm having overheating problems, my fan sounds better but now I'm having over heating problems. Also, I found out that my charge, which I had no problems out of until recently, I have to giggle to get it to recharge the computer. I reduce the battery power, and that seemed to solve it, but when I plug it in, it gets hotter (as I found out thanks to some fellow HP users with the same problems).

But it isn't just those issues I have. It seems today my antivirsus keeps blocking a lot of harmful webpages to just about every site I go to that has never given me problems before.

So, I'm wondering if I should reset my computer and see if that works, or if I should consider a new laptop (I don't want to give up on my laptop just yet, but if the problems persist... According to a friend of mine these HP laptops packed the fan in so tight that compute doesn't last more than a year, three if you're lucky.)

If I do get a new laptop, I want one that will last me a long time. So what do you guys think, or recommend.

    I currently am using a gateway laptop, it's been four years I use it for everything, school and entertainments except gaming...
    It work properly, it's pretty fast and everything BUT I have no internal space.
    I've been wondering rather or not should I buy a new laptop or upgrade it to window 8 including buying a new internal drive, the memory (keep on saying close some program low in memory, I'm not sure what it mean) but thing is I can't do it myself, I could get everything done at Staples (an electronic company in my area) but the subtotal for upgrading my laptop to window 8 including new internal hard drive, is equivalent to the price of a new laptop.

    It's been four years I grew attach to it, getting a new one doesn't sound bad either... I'm at lost for what should I do....

    So, I'm not alone in laptop troubles. Oh what a relief. Hey, I asked a favorite author of mine and here are her suggestions and expriences with laptops. http://justzoni.tumblr.com/ (You'll have to scroll down one), I also found this to help me think of what I'm looking for in a new laptop: http://nathanhinkle.com/blog/2014/which-laptop-should-i-buy-for-college/

    I hope both our laptop troubles resolve soon. I like the looks of Lenovo, but both my mother, sister, friend agree on Toshiba.

    Personally, I prefer the Apple brand (I have a MacBook), fewer viruses to infect them, fewer problems etc. I have a five year old laptop that has only ever needed servicing once, a chip blew, and it only cost about $30.00 to fix. And I use it constantly.

    lolkika: I don't know. It's kinda eird that nobody has heard anything from the scan team. Normally sanoiscari says something about it by now, whether it will be late or not or when it should be released, but there has been no words from her. Not only that, but there has been no mention of them translating the side story 2 either. (Thankfully, Funtom Candy is doing that with the help from somebody who has an MA in Japanese.) So I don't know what going on. But, here are the Chinese translations: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3478623831

    tokidoki: I've heard a lot about the MacBook series, but I never thought to get one (too expensive), are they that good? You are lucky to own one.

    The scanlation probably won't do the side-story because it's only sold with the DVDs of Book of Circus. It's not in the magazines.
    Now as for why it's taking this long for chaper 100, maybe because they're translating the poll? Couldn't be more unsure though aha. It would be nice if they did though, especially because it's not in the chinese scans.

    They have updated the raw a little while ago... I'm guessing it's only a matter before they translate it.

    They use their own japanese scans though, not the chinese raws with watermarks.
    Of course, it shouldn't take too long, but as of right now they haven't really said anything.

    I know right... Either way they might have encounter some kind of problem which causes them to be late or that they cease to translate it all together.

    Oh don't scare me, then how would we get the chapters (I could probably ask sense scans or s2scans to do it)..But then again with japan cracking down on this, they might have gotten caught. I was looking over on chilling effects and it seems Square has been sending a lot of DMCA orders as of late. So it might be possible they got one and we just don't know about. Great, now I'm paranoid. I hope it is just the case of their lives being too busy or they had computer problems.

    It's the acronym for "Digital Millennium Copyright Act"

    Well I'm really aware of that happening, not even sure Caitrona's talking about mangas.
    Either way, I'd wait couple of days before freaking out lol. Not that I would freak out either way. But seriously, it hasn't been that long.
