I would like you to help me purc...Hello everybody!<br /><br />I would like you to help me purchase a laptop, please.<br /><br />Here's what it needs to have:<br /><br />1. I want a PC<br />2. Windows XP (I absolutely loathe Windows Vista.) Or the capacity to have an older version of Microsoft Word, because I hate the Windows Vista version of Word.<br />3. The iTunes, Paint, Windows Media Player and other applications should work<br />4. It should be a relatively large screen (15, 16, maybe even 17 inches)<br />5. Relatively light, if possible<br />6. DVD player with a tray (not a slot)<br />7. Built-in wireless ability<br /><br />I'm supposed to pick one off of Costco. Please help. I don't want an Acer and would probably prefer a Dell. Thanks.<br />--------------------<br />Depending on how desperate you are...<br /><br />As for your specifications<br />1. Obviously you still have a brain.<br />2.You want Word 2003, and yes it will work on Vista.<br />3. What computer doesn't, the question is, how much juice do you need a a computer, what do you use it for besides typing and watch idiotic movies?<br />4. and 5. 15" and up will not be too light, you might get something acceptable at 15" but anything bigger will defiantly be too heavy.<br />6. Almost all have this, and 7. Do you mean regular wifi? every computer has that, or do you want 3g with a celluar network?<br /><br />You should wait till you get a computer that will be eligible to upgrade to Windows 7 when it comes out in october which would be windows vista premium, don't get vista basic. Computer purchased in the near future will be able to upgrade to Window 7 for just $10.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
