Ok, so I'm going to try to get my parents and my brother to go in and pay for a laptop for me for Christmas! And hopefully I can get a good deal at a Black Friday sale or online this season.
The main reason I want one is so I can be on the Internet and watch TV at the same time. I don't need to play games or do big graphics stuff or anything - I can use my desktop for that.
~~ So what's the minimum it can have - 1 gig ram for Vista, right? (I don't suppose any PCs are sold w/XP any more
)
~~The hard drive doesn't need to be huge, a few gigs shuold be all right. I'm planning on getting a jump drive? to transfer any pics of whatever I DL on there.
~~ What are the good/bad laptop brands?
Anything I'm missing? Any help would be appreciated... I'd like to narrow this down to a few choices and watch for sales.
Thanks!!
