Hi Lori,
 
Thanks for the info.  This kind of info really helps me as I start to research notebooks.  I'll take a look at the HP Notebook at the HP Web Site.  :)

I have a Hewlett-Packard.   I used to use it a lot when I was in bed and was doing some different things at different times which I am not doing these days.  I still have it but I have not used it in a long time.
 
At the time we were looking to 'get one' for me ... I was disappointed to see that 'all' of them now have the flat mouse area that sits before the keyboard.  That is very uncomfortable for me because I literally have to reach over that whole space to type on the keyboard.  So I began to use Dragon NaturallySpeaking whenever I was doing any long 'text' work.
 
But I also enjoyed playing games and the ones I play require using the keyboard.  I've used my fist to type for 26 years and am 'very used to' doing that.  So what my husband did was to plug in a regular keyboard into the laptop and that way I could use a standard keyboard which is conducive to my ability to reach only a short distance.
 
To connect to the Internet we use a wireless network card.
 
Hope that helps!

Hi Bobbie,
 
Okay, thanks!  I figure weight will be a issue that I'll need to deal with.  Staying connected is my goal.  :)

I've have a HP lap top for years ~ I love it. The pad on the lap top to navigate the mouse is tricky but doable. Typing is more difficult for me any way.
  I can't lift it but I can plug it in. I use it when I'm stuck in bed for months on end.
