Hello Hope, Curious! What do you think of the AMD Turion 64 processor? I have seen it mentioned often in ads for Circuit City and Comp USA. I wonder how it compares to intel processors like the Pentium M, Core Solo, Core Duo, etc.

I lied to you unintentionally. I looked at several computers which included a Numlock pad. The one I purchased is an HP. It cost $1,000 after the rebate. It has an AMD Turion 64 processor. It has an 80 Gig hard drive and one Gig of RAM. It weighs about five to 8 pounds. It is large it has a 17 inch wide screen. It has a built in wireless internet card. Hope that helps. We purchased it at Circuit City. Smile.
