my partner bought a brand new el-cheapo Dell for about $350, max'ed out the RAM for another $120. He got it so that he can learn Vista for his consulting ... it would run XP a lot better. came with all the modern bells and whistles (802.11 wireless, etc). at that kind of price, I wouldn't put money into a used laptop.
(he uses an Apple Mac Book for his own stuff, he only *fixes* Windows systems ... ;-) Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
