My one and only "work" laptop since 2011, retired after long years of service.
It started with dead batteries 5 years ago, then keyboard gave up 2 years after. It then slowly deteriorates and became lagging when opening multiple operations. Then it was dead yesterday.
My brother, knowledgeable on computers (he is a computer programmer), inspects the device. He determined a malfunctioning cooler fan, motherboard damage, and some internal component wear among its previous problems. Good thing is that the hard drive was salvage and working.
Still, without a computer I cannot color my sketch works. It worries me now. I need to have a working laptop, brand new or second hand, that is capable in operating Photoshop and Manga Tool. Or else things will be pretty ugly. I am spending my day today and tomorrow look for such, with the help of my brother, to find a worthy computer, affordable or one that can be payed in monthly basis.
To be honest, I am short of cash right now. But please stay with me till I can find a way to have a new device. Artworks will be delayed but I will start working them once this issue is resolve.
I'll give an update for this matter.
