But I have never bought a laptop (not sure what the difference between a notebook and a laptop are) and was wondering if this price is a good deal?

RossMAN Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Notebook and laptop are the same thing. Just like dinner and supper :) That is a good deal, I would buy it. If you have an Entertainment coupon book, it should have a $10 off $40 coupon towards the back. I know it's only $10 but money doesn't grow on trees.

bayhaysay Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Are you sure?? Dinner is noontime meal Supper is evening time meal (sloooowly backing out of the tread before hit with something) Actually, lunch = noontime meal, supper = evening meal....unless you're going out to eat, then...dinner = evening meal (as in, "We're going out to dinner.") /runs and hides with kmbrly:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spa Mom Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 How does this laptop compare to this Dell http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?CS=19&kc=6V658&oc=D80508R Brunch is Breakfast and lunch combined (see how the word is combined) usually in the early afternoon or about noon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 How does this laptop compare to this Dell http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?CS=19&kc=6V658&oc=D80508R The Dell Inspiron E1505 is better as it offers the Dual Core processor, DVD Burner, Windows Media Center Edition 2005 and optional video graphics card. But it's also $649 vs $499 or $399. I would read some reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spa Mom Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 This always happens to me. You sweat it out to buy a computer and when you do the next day there is something better. I went to Radio Shack and bought it. I also got a wireless router and a printer for free after rebate. I forgot to ask about playing games on this. Will it be good for that? It's for my 10 year old daughter (she is paying for 1/2 of it) and she like to play the games on Nick.com and has a few computer games. Oh I got it for the $499 after rebates because I didn't need the wireless service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 It should be fine for most video games unless they're graphics intensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
