Clif Posted November 8, 2008 Report Posted November 8, 2008 I think i paid 800 for mine, its a 17" hp dv9000. 3 gigs of ram, dual core amd, 250 gig hdd. I love it. love my hp. got one for school little high priced cause i needed a nice one for school but you cen get a few mods down. But if you do get a hp get one with a bigger bat. Its a lil spendy but your laptop will last forever, gives you a nice handle to hang on to, and when its on a table it elevates it so its kinda easier to type on.

AI James Posted November 8, 2008 Report Posted November 8, 2008 that hp is decent for the money Quote
BassJunkie Posted November 8, 2008 Report Posted November 8, 2008 Yeah No?http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/HP-Pavilion...ail.do#proddesc I love my 17" widescreen, but if you're wanting tons of time away from the plug consider a smaller screen. Mine will last for almost 2 hours on power saver setting. I'm looking into getting the bigger battery.

Amalan Posted November 8, 2008 Report Posted November 8, 2008 yeah also keep battery life in mind cause usually the bigger the screen the lower the battery life cause the backlight is what consumes the most battery life. like i have a small hp tablet pc with a 12in screen which can last me about 4 hrs on power saver mode. also sort of a rule of thumb with new laptops but pretty much any laptop with 4gigs of memory is going to be 64bit os. heres a very nice laptop for your wife http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16834117809 really strong processor with a big hard drive incase your wife doesnt have an external hd as well.

kingsuv Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Posted November 8, 2008 Not too worried bout battery time. My work one sucked up battery so I was just about always hooked up to power Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes.

I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it.

AI James Posted November 9, 2008 Report Posted November 9, 2008 do you run a termlab? and do you find the drivers for all of your old printers and other devices? Quote

kingsuv Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Posted November 19, 2008 Ok, so it's looking like I like th HP stuff the best. Now aside from getting as much ram and HD as I can. What processor should I go with and what do I need to stay from? Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes.
