Looking for small, cool Laptop....
by Puppy_lover1011 - 1/6/06 3:24 PMMy laptop is getting old and I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a new one. I'm looking for something slim, cool looking, but not too old, or expensive. Maybe something that's been out for a while that has gone down in price? Thanks!
You'll need a more specific budget...

Compaq $499
by AndyInTN - 1/10/06 10:54 AM In reply to: Looking for small, cool Laptop.... by Puppy_lover1011A few days ago CompUSA had a Compaq Notebook for $499. It only had 256 MB of RAM but that can be easily & cheaply upgraded. It also only had Windows XP Home, which may or may not be an issue for you...it would for me.
Dell also has decent spec laptops for under $600. The only thing I would suggest is upgrading the RAM from the basic 256 MB to at the least 512 MB.
