Help me find a laptop

Thanks for the suggestions! The x200s might be an option. But I'd like a slightly larger screen. While the 1.86 ghz core2duo is a bit weaker than I'd like, it's certainly closer than the x300. My budget is fairly large - I'd probably spend up to $3k if I found everything I wanted. Of...

Right, everything on my list is deficient somewhere. Are there any other laptops that should be on my list that aren't?

Help me find a laptop

I added the x200, but it doesn't really meet my needs. a) based on size (not resolution) alone 12.1" widescreen is just too small for my tastes. Remember, with the move to widescreen the area of the 12" screen is smaller than it was in 4:3. b) I'd like more than 1280x800 resolution. I edited the...

Help me find a laptop

Hey all, so I'm looking for a laptop, but I'm having a hard time meeting my needs. I'll carry this laptop nearly daily, so I'm looking at about 4 lbs (lighter, if I can do it, is always better.) But this is also my main computer so I'd like it to be sufficiently powerful (13"+ screen, with...

Help Recommend a thin and light Laptop.

I like the ibook, and no need to get pelted for suggesting it. I'm just not sure its a what we need. The powerbooks(12/15inch) are very attractive, but too expensive. They weight of the 14 inch ibook is more than comparable PCs, and the price premium (over comparable PCs) makes it not a great...

Help Recommend a thin and light Laptop.

Ok, well my ibook died, and its time to get a laptop. I'm thinking that a thin & light laptop is probably best. Used or new. Light(around 5lbs) Good battery life (3-4 hours preferred) 14inch screen (12/13 inch considered) Internal or external drives No need for anything more than an...

Lindows Mobile PC for $799

I doubt it would be hard to install XP or the like on this. Everything should be relatively standard parts. The price and the design on this look pretty good. If the battery life is good then this could be very nice. I wouldn't mind paying more, and it being slightly heavier, for builtin...

Room Temp:Staples pays you $10 for 52x cdrom, cdrs, and tax software

cant you get the norton anti-virus instead of the personal firewall... then use competeing for rebates, and send mcafee as competeing to Norton, and Norton as competeing to McAfee? Just a thought Orie

Mobile Review Suggestions- Make your voice heard

I think form factor is a big deal. size, weight, etc... I'd be interested in something along the lines, of these are the kinds of things you can do with this pda above basic functionality...i.e. this is what the speed/extra cost etc... is for something other than the baseline(palm III for me)...

Using a cellphone to "dial in" to a network, is it possible?

I see a couple usb to nokia or serial to nokia that say uses include sending/recieving faxes(which would be the same thing as a modem, although possibly slower) Would I just use the cable, and go for it, or would it be more complicated? Thanks, Orie
