I know laptops are like 500 and to get a good one, you have to pay that much. i am dying for one and my mom doesn’t have money right now to get me one. i asked my dad and he said if one was 300 he would get it but 500 and 700 is way too much. My mom would buy one off of ebay but she doesn’t trust people to sell a laptop that they are syaing is in good condition. Does anyone know where i can get a good working laptop for a cheap price??
thankyou!!!!!! and i might get the asus eee but the memory is very low .
i dont really make money so it would take about 2 years for 400 dollars and i need on for 300 and please no ebay and i maight try craigslist though?
Hi i have AMD athlon(tm) xp 2000+ with 1.67ghz, 400mb of ram and
i got this computer in 2001 and as you can see the ram is very small and i do not want to buy a new computer. I was just wondering what type of memory do i need to increase my ram.
I can’t decide which of these two computers would best suit my needs. I’m quite heavy into using Photoshop, playing games on Pogo, watching my DVDs on my computer, audio/video editing (making fan music videos), building websites, and playing games – mostly the Nancy Drew pc games that is (and since they upgrade their engine I’m forced to upgrade my computer). My cons in general: I hate having a small drive. Currently I have a Compaq with an 80gb drive with 512mb memory (it’s about 7-8 years old). Slow as heck! And I dislike Windows Vista. I prefer XP. These are what I’m thinking of purchasing:

I’m looking to get my wife a new laptop computer for Christmas. Something small, fast, good memory, and did I mention fast? Primary uses will be for surfing the net, storing family photos, and music downloads.
My first thought was to get a nice Dell notebook. But I’m leary of spending money for more Micorosoft Windows software. I hear Windows Vista isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. So I thought about maybe getting her a Mac notebook, but not sure she would really care one way or the other.
Any suggestions on the best all around laptop for under 00?
A week ago, my desktop computer was experiencing a problem where after I downloaded a windows update and was resetting my computer, it froze on an opening screen. I reset it only to find out that nothing would even show up on the monitor, but I could hear the inner fan running. After switching the video card and then the hard drive with a spare computer, I still couldn’t get it to show anything on screen and now that spare computer was experiencing the same problem.
So I put everything back to their original positions and took it to Office Depot for their free PC checkup, and somehow they got it to work again, which was weird since, aside from my computer being slow due to the small amount of memory it has (256 MB), they claimed there was nothing weird. Although while they were checking it, it reset by itself a couple of times, but they said it’s just because I needed to clear up some space on my hard drive.
So now that I’ve gotten it back, I’ve noticed that even though I freed up some space, my computer would still reset by itself at random times. And in recovering from the reset, when I enter my admin account, it tells me that the system has just recovered from a serious error. The error report that it generates includes two files with the last part of the file names labeled
\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER9b53.dir00\Mini031709-01.dmp
and
\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER9b53.dir00\sysdata.xml
I’ve tried running my antivirus program, but my system keeps resetting before it fully completes the scan. Although, the longest scan it performed before resetting yielded no apparent viruses.
Could anyone help me to figure out what’s wrong?
Also, I don’t know if this is related or not, but I can’t even get that windows update to stay, each time it said it completed successfully, the next time I booted up my system, it would tell me that there’s still a windows update to download.
My future father-in-law gave me a desktop computer from his shop. He owns a small business for which he makes circuit boards. The computer he gave me was running one of his machines(not exactly sure what it did though). It came with keyboard, mouse and CRT monitor.
The details that i do have:
(1) The computer is about 8yrs old, but in pristine condition. I took the cover off to inspect it and it looks brand new! Also…the cover seems to be heavy duty. It’s thick black sheet metal with braces on the inside and two handles on the outside!
(2) It has 2 Pentium III processors in it with Windows NT. Not sure on speed or memory! A cd player, floppy disc drive, video card and a couple of long skinny ports for which i assume linked to his machines in his shop(Parallel ports?).
Now…my question is; can this desktop computer be used as a home computer? Obviously a few changes would have to be made! First of which would be to change the OS to Windows XP or Vista. I would like to use it for internet(wireless) and hook it up to my Plasma TV as a monitor and watch movies and such! Is this possible?
Also…do they make Blu-ray players that can go inside Desktops?
Serious answers will be appreciated(Best Answer)!
It has two ports for monitors, i know what they look like! The long skinny ones are about 5in long and i’ve never seen them before…that’s why i assumed they were special for his machines!
I need a laptop that will include these qualities:A good laptop for college, A good amount of memory and battery life, also im interested in gemology so i need a computer that will suite the needs of that career. And im looking for a small one like a notebook. Also any other qualities that will be useful for a laptop.
Thank You
Oh and I do not want an apple computer.
Please include details.
A desktop or a laptop?
My computer is getting old. One of these days, I’m going to have to replace it.
However, I’m unsure as to wheather or not I should get another desktop or a laptop.
The one I have now is a desktop. I also have a netbook, but it could never be my only computer because it just doesn’t have the memory or capabilty I need.
I live in a one room, so a laptop would definatly take up less space and I could also use it in my favorite chair.
However, I do a lot of typing, some graphics, and printing. I like the control a mouse gives me, and I like my split keyboard and large monitor too.
What are the advantages of laptop vs desktop?
Don’t know too much about computers.. but oh well..I’m looking for something small (preferably 10-11inches across I can’t type on those tiny keyboards)
It doesn’t need TOO much memory couple gigabytes is fine
about 60-80 on the hard drive..
good graphics.
And that could work with Ubuntu.
