Ok I am getting a new laptop for University because my old 15.4" laptop was one of those affected by the nVIDIA disaster that HP Compaq tried to cover up. Sad.
1. Budget: $200-$350
2. Size: I want a NETBOOK. 9" - 11.6" at max.
3. Screen Res: I don't think this will matter much to me...
4. Reasons: Portability. My desktop is a Phenom II x4 with 4gb of ram. I don't need a powerful laptop ... hence a netbook.
5. Batt Life: More than the POS batt lief I got from HP Compaq.
6. Games: No No No No No. Solitare lol. My desktop is for gaming.
7. Uses: No video watching really, homework, internet, email that is it really.
8. HDD: I have an extra 100GB HDD from the dead laptop, but 50GB would be enough.
9. Sites: I don't think so. Newegg and that is it. I live in New York City, and I have two working legs. I can just walk to BestBuy or B&H and get a laptop.
10.Keep laptop for... Four or more years. I have a fan system for it from my old laptop. I plan to reuse.
11. Optical drive: Non needed if I am going to use a netbook.
12. Brands: EVERYTHING BUT HP/COMPAQ and ACER. HP/Compaq is trash, and I hope those bloody whoredogs rot in hell.
13. Country: United States of America.
14. Netbook preferred.
I live in New York City, and problems, they get fixed quickly.
I have been looking at the ASUS 1000HA, and the MSI Wind U123... I am looking at the Wind more closely however...
