hey everybody... been a while since i've posted here, but i'm coming out of the shadows with a question...
seeing as i'm going to college soon, i'll be needing a laptop for schoolwork/personal use, etc. now, i know how to use computers well, but i don't know how to choose them. it's potato-potahto to me...
What i'm looking for is something DURABLE (very important, i can be rough on things), with a Windows OS, medium-sized (like, say, 15" or so? i don't want to squint at the screen but i don't want to carry around a flatscreen TV...), light-weight would be nice, with wireless capabilities (i assume most/all laptops have this nowadays...). it'll mostly be used for web surfing and writing. I know nothing about memory capacity, but i want a substantial amount because i like having more of something rather than less. Preferrably at, around, or below $1000.
Is that a narrow enough list? it's about all the important things i can think of at the moment.
thanks much in advance,
tmm
