dell? hahahahaha /wrists. im not getting rid of it because of something bad. its like a trade-in. sell this one, get a new one with a warranty
i dont' think i'll ever buy another computer that cost more than $900. just not necessary the way technology advances.
you also don't work in the internet. personally, i wouldn't spend more than 300 on a computer if all i did was post online and check email... Viao's imo are overpriced.... and i really dislike sony. honestly, i don't see the need to upgrade what you have, as nearly everything in that price range is the same thing, or worse. not much has changed to laptops in a year and change
I cant see me getting rid of mine... mine is 18 months old and still not one issue. Plus it keeps up with most current desktops. Of course i do have a 2.2 GHZ centrino, so no dual core but it was like the month before dual core came to laptops. I wont be buying a computer for a long long time to come. And yes.. its the Dell
20 months going strong on my dell. It's a baby one though, 12.1 " 700m on a 1.8 centrino. But I love her to death.
I did the same thing, bought mine last february, then checked back a few weeks later and all of them were changed to Core Duo. I wish i woulda waited a little bit. actually i wish i wouldn't have even got a dell, this thing is slower than my desktop from back in 2002.
so i bought this- http://www.zones.com/site/product/index.html?id=001774397 in-house 2.0ghz c2d and 2gb memory upgrade
