Laptop Computer


Recommended Posts

Also looking for a laptop deal. I passed on BF deals because I figured I'd just pound away on my laptop for another year or so. Of course, a week later I'm having all kinds of trouble with it and kicking myself!!! I'm looking for something basic, but nice: dual processor, at least 1 gb memory, 100 gb hd, dvd burner. The one I'm REALLY kicking myself for passing on was the HP I saw on staples.com on BF for $449 (after rebates)--2 gb mem (upgradeable to 4), 120 gb hd, lightscribe dl-dvd burner, firewire port...when do people think I can get another deal like that?

You can buy something like that without the 2 GB of RAM and would just have 1 GB for about $450 at OD or BB and then for around $30 if you know you to do your shopping right, you could get a 1 GB memory upgrade thus making the total 2GB.

That is directly dependent on whether the computer manufacturer decided to use two 512mb RAM chips or one 1GB RAM chip. :smart:

 

90% of manufacturers will use the two 512mb chips.

Best Buy is suppose to have a fairly decent laptop in their ad 12/2 for $399. Pretty comparable to the BF laptops from CC if I remember reading that somewhere correctly... :tongue1:

Thanks for the heads-up!! I'm going to keep my eyes open for that...anyone have details?
