Hello! I'm new here.
I know my way around my computer pretty good, and can figure things out, most of the time. But I'm definately not a computer programmer or even close.
I'd like some help picking out a new laptop. I would like to sell my computer and get a laptop I can use at home and take w/ me on the road.
Here's what I want from my laptop:
I want/need Outlook, Word, Xcel
Download some pictures from my camera. I don't need to store them there, I can always get something else to store my pics.
I need to be able to surf the internet, FAST. I know some of that depends on my service provider, but I want my laptop to be fast if I give it the right tools. We do a lot of live auctions and we need to have the fast computer for that.
I would like to play dvd's, and have a cd and dvd burner, and I think many come w/ a web cam.
I also need to connect my Ipod, phone and things like that.
What should I be looking for in a laptop, which one would you recommend - for my needs and wants??
Also, how much can I sell my current home computer for?? I have absolubtely no idea:
17" Dell LCD w/ speakers attached
Wireless keyboard and mouse
Dell Dimension 8400
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.000GHz
2.99 GHz
1.00 GB of RAM
Windows XP Pro Version 2002
CD/ DVD burner
Floppy disk,
USB, Ethernet connections
Bought in 2004
Thank you for all your help!!
