New Laptop - Dell, Bad - laptop, dell, bad

I have my Dualcore AMD Acer laptop, 5102Wlmi, with a 120GB hd, 2 GB ram, etc. I had a friend buy it
in the states and bring it over just 2 months ago. All of a sudden, the other day when i went to
turn it on, it would bring up the xp boot screen, and then just hang there. I tried a different hard
drive. no luck. I tired installing XP, but after booting from cd and loading all the drivers, right
after the FAT and NTFS drivers, it says "Setup is loading Windows" and then it hangs there. I've
left it overnight and in the morning it's still in the same place. I can&#...

I bought an Acer Aspire 5601WLMI for $850 after rebates. It has an AMD Turion 64 X2 ML-50 processor,
2 GB DDR2 ram, 120GB hard drive, 15.4 in brightview widescreen, etc. I did alot of online research
before i bought it, as I don't like Acers, and would have gone for a Compaq or Dell had i had
more time. But it seemed to get pretty high reviews, and on notebookreview.com it was in the top 5.
But has anyone here had any experience with one of them, and can shed more light on whether i made
myself a deal or a lemon? Also, say i was to try out Linux on it, would i run i...

Earlier this month is was reported that the Birmingham, Alabama school district was going to be the
first to offer the One Laptop per Child (http://laptop.org/) in America
(http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/12/04/1525219). This story caught my attention because
it hits close to home (I will leave it up to your imagination in which way.) The basic idea is that
eighth-grade Birmingham students will get the laptops at the beginning of the year and then turn
them in at the end. If the laptops, which look like some sort of fancy toy, are lost or stolen,
they can ...

Does anyone know of a good manufacturer who has a laptop with a core 2 duo and at least a 7900GS?...

I want to buy a laptop for school. So, what I need is a laptop that can run at least 2-3 hours, the
more, the better. I realy do NOT want a relfective screen, these are so annoying and we have a lot
of windows in our school. Other things I'd like: 1Gb ram (at least) 80Gb HDD(at least) a rather
descent graphics card, because I'd like to do some gaming on the laptop too (some lessons are
freaking boring /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" ). Dual Core CPU (slow model is
good enough) my budget is ~ €1200 I've never had a laptop before (ok...

I am looking around at laptops and wondering what is the best one for playing games and doing
graphic design? I currently have a dell xps gen 1 and it's pretty good but not portable enough

Alienware looks good too Any thoughts/suggestions? Looking for a 6 lb or lighter gaming laptop
for at most $2k prefer one for about 1200ish tho honestly...

Alright, so I've finally come to the conclusion that I want to spend some cash on a notebook
computer. It is not going to be a desktop replacement by any means, I just want something portable
to take to class, do some coding on, surf the web, the basics. It'll be nice not being tied to
my desk when I feel like doing some coding or whatnot... the living room shall become my homework
haven... Anyways I have been looking around for one to buy and comming up a bit short. Lots of
choices and I don't know for sure what would be the best choice. The only real guid...

Hey, I'm be going to school in a year or so, and I've been looking for a laptop, I'm
not really desperatly in need for one, but I do need one that's relatively cheap so that if it
gets broken while transfering back and forth from school with me, I can be mad, but not furious.
It's a lot easier to take notes with a laptop, and it also saves a lot of time and money so you
don't have to buy a whole new computer for at school. And of course it makes it easy if you get
residence and use the internet hook-up with it and just kinda go from there. Do...

data off of it....
