Wow, had my stupid Compaq Presario laptop for about a year and it konked out. It was a good thing I was working off of the external drive, otherwise, I was in trouble!!!! What's with me a burning PC's...same thing happened to my regular desktop PC (but it was easy to change out the PSU). For the laptop, it's almost impossible.
I'm not going to bother getting it fixed so I'm just going to get a new one. I'm looking to spend no more than $1,000 including taxes. Any of you guys recommend a good brand? Perhaps Dell? Must have Core Duo or Core 2 Duo. Forget AMD. I'm sick and tired of them.
I should add that this isn't a gaming laptop. Just for work and school. Mainly using it for Internet, Word processing, Solitaire, watching DVD, music, the basics.
