Just keep your hands where we can see them. :smile:


Ok details now...what kind did you get?
 
I'll tell you exactly what it says. (in other words, I'm not sure):
I got a Toshiba satellitle M45-S355. Intel pentium M processer (1.96Ghtz) 1024MB DDR SDRAM 100GB (5400rpm) HDD, 15.4'' WXGA display, DVD SuperMulti Double layer drive, 802.11b/g wireless, i.LINK. 1394, Microsoft Windoes XP home
 
wow, I'm now jealous! Thats a great laptop. sounds like it has a lot of goodies packed into it. I wish I had the cd/dvd burner, like yours, it would make archiving my photo files so much easer.
 
Sounded great up until that last detail. Windows just ruins the whole thing. :-p

You're going to get spoiled on that one!
 
yomomma, next time I'm going to go have a bowel movement, I will take my PDA with me and describe everything in great detail to you over PM making sure I also include the doodle of how the thing looks like

Too bad it doesn't help your typing (You forgot the space between I and love). :biggrin: I was hoping there would be some little error I could point out. You did not disappoint. :smile:

Those are great specs for a laptop. Enjoy it. :smile:
 
ditto what moonbear said.
 
mac sucks, so do any other non-windows systems

Mac : Microsoft :: SAAB : Detroit. That is, some good points, but really a fad for people who enjoy being countercultural, and are willing to acctep higher costs to do it.

A fad? For ones who enjoy being countercultural?

I've been religously using macs for over a decade, and would NEVER give them up over a PC.
