I am going to be buying a laptop within the next couple of months. I was just wondering if anybody had any suggestions as to specific components I should looks for or steer away from?
School next year. I'm not into gaming or anything like that (except the SIMS). I need something to run XP on, atleast a 14" screen and it has to be faster than my current computer (Celeron 400 w/ 192 mB RAM). I am hopefully looking for about a 1.6GHz processor.
The only 1.6GHz laptops are Pentium 4 models, which i suggest you stay far from, they are dogs at that speed, look into an Athlon/Duron mobile or Pentium III powered machine if you want decent horsepower.
