that is scary and i'm sick of it and i'm sick of having to end programs and reboot and everything takes forever i could reformat i guess. but i'm lazy and this thing is a bit old anyway. so i want a notebook. i've wanted one for a while. maybe i just think it would be cooler- i dunno. i'm tired of dragging this big thing around and not being able to write at home or some other place with the sun shining in. so help me. please. and i don't just want to get the best one i can find because i know i don't need it and i'm going to need to get some clothes pretty soon. i want to run autocad and photoshop and crap like that without any problems. um. thanks. unless you don't answer me and then i will be upset and kick your ass. all of you. |

Oh, and check pricewatch.com |
i have a tendency to buy the very best thing of what i'm looking for [that i can reasonably afford] figuring that i'll be happier with it especially in the long run. in this case i guess i can afford about everything i've seen [just less money later] but i don't want to be stupid and say, pay money for speed that won't make any difference to me. when i look at what i wanted to pay, adding things that make it better seems expensive but worth it....bigger screen size, dvd, more memory....and i find myself unable to decide. i would appreciate any advice on things NOT to get as well. thanks! |

i think i'm hesitant because deep down i feel like i can't really afford it, but at the same time i think i need it before this thing croaks |
It works fine for me, esp with the huge monitor it is more like a desktop. Much more memory and power and speed that the dell pc dearly loved and well used...but there was a ton of factory shit, and the language character set when I got this had been set to Bosnian, so once I got that figured out. But my explorer keeps screwing things up and now Dave tells me the AOL icon is screening my calls and making lewd gestures. My penny: go shopworn and negotiate negotiate negotiate. Then shop sorabji.com What the hell do I know? When I bought a printer, I got the Lexmark factory rep down with coupons and rebates so as to cost me $9 for the printer. The leather carrying case was $200. |
nipplemouse. get a touchpad or rollerball. nipplemice are of the devil. Does it have to be PC? the Mac Powerbooks are really nice. NVidia or ATI graphics card. I don't know much about how laptops are put together. No one will let me take theirs apart, and I can't afford my own. Yet. |
Titanium powerbook looks like an excellent machine. It's suprisingly cheap, too. And, if your purpose is to run photoshop, you can't get much faster than a G4... |
I'm using my laptop. Texas Instruments Extensa 570 CDT. It's quite old but I wouldn't recommend it anyway, it can barely carry the dull work crap, let alone run my favourite porn sites in all their glory. |
