ok....thanks for the feedback on this. Also, another question, but is there any place to get microsoft office without paying full price for it? If i remember correctly, isn\'t it a couple hundred bucks by itself
The "student" version of Office runs about $100 and includes Word, Excel, and Powerpoint.
Full Office includes those plus it includes Outlook, Publisher, and Access and runs a lot more, 300 range I think.

the 2 processers are AMD Turion 64x2 TL-56 and Intel Core Duo T2450
Everything that I\'ve read (which isn\'t a ton - but a handful of reviews) puts the AMD processor behind the Intel in performance.
:shrug: I just bought a cool laptop on Ebay for $250... you should check and see if you can find what you want for much cheaper on that site
GHETTO!

ok, I have it narrowed down between a couple, but just one more question. Is there a big difference between these two processers/and is it worth upgradeing to 2GB ram while taking the cheaper processer?

this is the one i\'m leaning towards, the only problem is there are no customer reviews.
Thanks for the advice everybody, I really don\'t know too much about what I\'m doing here

it\'s a stretch, but if you happen to know anyone in the military, you (they) could get Office 2007 for $19.95... details:
All military service members with access to the AKO website: To purchase for individual home use any of the below programs, you just need to go to the Deals in Technology page inside AKO and click on the Microsoft Home Program link. Save the military program use code that is depicted on the next AKO webpage. It should direct you to https://ascp.monmouth.army.mil/scp/software/hup.jsp. You have to submit your ako address, army program code, and your information after which Microsoft sends you the approved link to the portal to buy the programs. For only 19.95 plus tax each (no combining shipping) you can buy Office 2007 and other program suites. Cheaper than even buying the programs at the AAFES stores.
Program Information and Available Items:
The Microsoft (MS) Home Use Program (HUP) was approved for all Army
personnel. This includes, Active Duty, Reserve, Guard and Civilians
currently employed by the Army. Detailed information as to the Home Use

Since your in school you should only be purchasing "educational" versions of any software you need. Photoshop, Office whatever. It is much much cheaper than buying it retail.
many retailers will have the educational versions. It is the same as the retail stuff but cheaper and technically it is only supposed to be sold to students, teachers, Profs etc.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Description=office+%2B+student&x=0&y=0
You\'ll notice right away that the price is only like $120ish compared to $349.00 etc
Or if you don\'t really need microsoft you could use open office. It has everything you could possibly want and it is free.

A quick question for you computer smart people out there. I\'m starting up grad school online and need to buy a laptop with wireless internet. Do you think this computer is a good deal, or if not where I should look to get one. Thanks! Also, for wireless internet, do you need to do anything besides find a place that you get a signal and the just load internet explorer?
This one is on sale for a couple more days.

The price is pretty good and the reviews seem solid.
Newegg has the same lappy and some other is that price range.

The only drawback is it has Vista. Which isn\'t that big a deal but there are some compatibility problems with certain software but for what you intend to do with it it most likely won\'t be an issue.
I haven\'t used an ACER computer in a long time but they have been around a while so thats a good thing.
