ANTINOUS: Penelope, the time has come. You must choose a suitor.
PENELOPE: Never! I await the return of my husband, the brave Odysseus! I have kept his HP Compaq 8710P 17” Business Notebook the very way he left it!
MELANTHIUS: Penelope, see reason. No one wants a laptop like that these days. Not even that old beggar over there next to the swineherd.
PENELOPE: The one wearing strangely fashionable rags with little owl logos?
MELANTHIUS: That’s the one. Even he won’t want a HP Compaq 8710P 17” Business Notebook! Let go of your husband’s memory, to which you cling foolishly, and choose a new lover!
PENELOPE: Foolish, Melanthius? Perhaps it is you who are the fool. My husband’s HP Compaq 8710P 17” Business Notebook has an HDMI output with VGA and can easily work with an HDTV. It contains a 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet with 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN and 56k modem and an additional DVD RW/R, DL RW/R and CD-RW/R with lightscribe optical drive.
AGELAUS: Yes, yes, and a 160 gig hard drive he carved from an olive tree, we’ve heard all this, Penelope, at least a dozen times.
PENELOPE:
So impatient, strong Agelaus. Did you also know, then, about the full
sized keypad? Would you dare to say that your laptop has a full sized
keypad?
CTESSIPPUS: Choose a suitor, Penelope! We grow impatient!
PENELOPE: Very well, Ctessippus. I will choose. I will choose any man… who can lift my husband’s HP Compaq 8710P 17” Business Notebook!
CTESSIPPUS: What?
ELATUS: Is she nuts?
ANTINOUS: Penelope, that thing weighs like seven and a half pounds, come on.
MYSTERIOUS BEGGAR: I will try, m’lady.
PENELOPE: As you will, m’lord.
DEMOPTOLEMUS: Who said that?
CTESSIPPUS: Was that the beggar? Don’t we know that voice?
AGELAUS: Hey, doesn’t that HP Compaq 8710P 17” Business Notebook have a fingerprint scanner?
EURYMACHUS: Fellas, I think we’re in some deep crap here.
ANTINOUS:
Hey, Odysseus, we were just kidding around, you know, we all knew it
was you the whole time, man. Hey, how about we use that 5-in-1 Card
Reader to look at the photos from your trip, huh? I bet you were doing
a lot of great stuff while you were… hey, now, hang on a second with
that… um, if anybody knows where my sword went I could use a little
help here… hey… HEY ODIE CHILL OUT DUDE COME ON SERIOUSLY
