the winner will get a picture of a leaf, personally stolen from someone's website (via Yahoo) by me.

also, im serious. i actually need to buy a laptop.

The new Apple Macbook Pro. Runs Intel's new Core Duo processors and can be dual booted with Mac OSX and Windows XP.

Like a sore dick - you just can't beat it.

Care to list your budget and requirements?

Well from what I know of you Doctor I think the LeapFrog Disney Princess Laptop would be perfect for you.



Of coarse if that is too stylish for you I would buy a Thinkpad or Apple.

poooowerbook

well played sir

That's the only laptop we ever needed back in my day, you young whippersnapper.

cool! analog laptop!

good thinking.

-just need it for simple non graphics intesive applications. like emailing, inventory crap, and looking at softcore porn sites
-in the $1000.00 range
-i know nothing about apples and really dont want to learn how to set up our windows network to work with an apple

Softcore porn? Not familiar with that. Is it like this?

I'd recommend an Acer. Mine was perfect for me, until I smashed the screen :-/ I have a Toshiba now.

OK, for my dollar, Dell is running a special for $499 on two models.

If you have money to burn, and like being envied, get that, with all the extras.

that costs more than my fucking car

If my Jeep put out I wouldn't be in front of my computer.

Of course it costs more than your car, that is the point. You didn't say you had a budget.

except that he did

Spend the extra $$$ and get one with built-in wireless and 1GB of RAM. Shared RAM means that the system uses part of the memory for the OS and part of it for the video card. Windows XP sucks with any less than 512MB by it self, then having the video card sucking off 32/64MB of the RAM blows.

My dad recently bought an Averatech. Nice, light and inexpensive.

I'm supposed to read through the thread?

I knew I was doing something wrong...

Okay, seriously..

For your needs anything will work. Acer, Dell, HP, the latest crazy off brand at Frys.

I would also recommend get one with an AMD in it, whoops that eliminates Dell, but to hell with Intel. Their product is inferior.
