I was given a dell inspiron 1501 as a gift from a close friend in August and I'll be graduating from HS in a few months. I'm being told that I should have a desktop too for "safe purposes". EX: the laptop stops working. However, it seems to me that having two computers is just too much.
What I was thinking was just purchasing an external hard drive (the internal hard drive is only 60 GB and almost full) and more RAM.
Does this seem like a sensible option? Should I just buy a desktop?
I have no idea what to do!

I am at a very confusing point in my life. I'm not a kid, but not an adult. I'm in college now; I'm in my second year towards a bachelors degree. Basically, I'm just wondering what sequence of events happened for you after college, and where are you at now? I'm sure answering this will not only help me, but the many many other people on here like me.

In other words- What is a good amount to start out with when I'm ready to get out on my own.
I suppose you could say "The more the merrier", but I want to hear from those that have "been there done that"- like, have graduated from college and have learned first hand just how much they should have saved.

Thanks people!

I'm writing an essay for school. If I wanted to quote Ghandi for his saying "an eye for an eye leaves the world blind", do I have to say his name in my essay or can I just put it in quotes? Thanks! Also, the essay doesn't relate to Ghandi, but his quote ties in to what I'm saying.

I've been researching a photographer named Eugene Atget. Couldn't figure out what his quote meant: "A good photograph is like a good hound dog, dumb, but eloquent."
Not sure what he means by "dumb".

something like that a vehicle or some other thing is "blue IN COLOR" or "red IN COLOR," etc.? Like... what's an alternative: red in like... WEIGHT? "Blue in... SIZE"? Come ON, people!

Oh, and you could even describe something that's not a person as just plain ol' WHITE or just BLACK, without saying "white..." or "black IN COLOR," because HELLOOOOO, THINGS don't come from races called stuff like White or Black. So there's no confusion between being white in color or black in color if someone already knows that the reference is to a thing instead of a person, RIGHT?

Maybe a piece of fruit could be described as orange in COLOR vs. orange...as the kind of fruit itself, but nothing else deserves that same kind of distinction, does it?

Even the words -blue- and -green- can be used for something other than actual colors, as in "feeling blue" or "green with envy," or a "greenie missionary," etc., but shouldn't it just be OBVIOUS, when describing the color of something, that the words
