You should not visit this thread if you've not caught up with the series!!

Lets end this. We have apologized and that is the end of that. I appreciate both sides of the debate.

You're probably right about that!

Let's not get carried away by this Internet contest.

We are very sorry that we don't yet have the manpower to implement this feature.

Well, Team Adaobi did quite well to get to the finals considering how busy we are and how much effort we put into it (not very much), but at the end of the day it's a beauty contest, so Lupey had to win. Congratulations!!!

Fellow Programmers,

I'm looking to select a computer model to be bought for the programmers I'll be recruiting to work on Nairaland and related online ventures.

Which laptop or desktop model would you recommend?

I'm currently most attracted to the N150k Dell XPS 15 L502X which has a quad core i7 cpu, 8GB RAM, 15" 1080p screen, & backlit keys. The only important feature it lacks is a solid state drive, though it's pretty fast without it. It also lacks portability due to it's bulky size and short battery life, but since it won't be taken out of a computer room, that may not matter.

Other laptop models I've looked at: 15" retina MBP (too expensive at 350k+), HP Envy 14-2160SE with 80GB SSD (mediocre 14" HD screen @140k), 13" Macbook Air with a sweet 900p screen and a SSD (too expensive at 250k), HP Elitebook 8770W with SSD and 17" 1080p screen (too expensive at N250k). HP Folio or Dell XPS 13 with SSD, backlit keys, and great battery life but tiny 13 inch screens and wimpy processors. iMac 21.5 inch which is probably too expensive and may require a UPS.

What do you think about the above laptops & desktop and which models would you love to have as a programmer?

Acidosis: Can I ask you a question? Can you marry Adaobi?

If I answer that trick question, my girl friends will probably kill me. So my lips are sealed. Nice try, though.

Caspian22: Lemme giv it 2 ADAOBI.. Shez cute n knws wat she wants

Thank you bro.

I have to admit that my "Adaobi Quotes" don't seem to be all that. Facts and common sense can be quite boring. However, if you contrast her answers to the fanciful answers posted by other contestants, you may begin to understand why I think they are worth commending. I'm sorry that I don't have the skills to explain this properly.

Sensible Quotes By Adaobi:
- "I decided to contest because I thought it was fun."
- "I choose Pharmacy because I LOVE chemistry."
- "Whoever can do the job better will get the job. End of !!"

Adaobi. Her answers are straightforward and honest and down-to-earth and rational and self-aware. These qualities are rare & valuable!

I apologize for my unfair outburst against Jesoul. It seems I forgot to check her post because I was mad with her for a different reason.

I don't think you understand what Internet forums are about! Nairaland Forum is a place to share information, and not to hoard it!

Atheism is not a religion, so it has nothing in common with Satanism and Paganism. You should ally with the Christians instead.

What actually happened? We can fix it and make you happier.

Ibime: Seun spectacles are not working properly. As much as I give Adaobi props for having the gumption to step up to bat without make-up, her eyebrows are a disaster. I talk am as I see am.

I think Adaobi's eyebrows are awesome. They don't have to be painted on every morning. You could check them out without rubbing them off by mistake. And they are there. No one can deny that. They are there. She actually has eyebrows. All the time. That seems to be very rare these days, so she deserves extra credit.
