Laptop!

[rambo]

Ive decided that while i love my desktop, and it's brand new, its still to archaic, and im doing more and more back and forth recently. I wanna custom config my notebook, any decent sites for it? The only ones i find are ones that dont have internal batteries. Any help is awesome.

To and fro,
Rambo

Im sorry bro.....for some reason my brain isnt working today.......my eyes read desktop but my brain processed laptop....i need some cofee.................what is it that you want to customize?

Heh, its allright mass,
No i dont have the laptop yet, i want to be able to pick and choose my parts, kinda like i did with my pc.

[Football_Bill]

It is hard to pick and chose all parts, but Dell seems to be the most configurable for laptops. Winbook used to be real good, but their prices have jumped a lot in the last year.

dells are good man - i have an ibm thinkpad right now - it's pretty decent, altho i still prefer my old dell...

check out dell.com to see if they have what you need

[Sicilian30]

Dude go get a Dell!

[Mouseofaman]

**** a dell. www.alienware.com if you've got the cash.

[Mouseofaman]

as for your desktop, you can sell it as a whole, or do what i do - scrap it for parts and put it on Ebay.

Yeah not all of us are rich like keymaster.. LOL.. Mr. money bags himself.. :).
However AW uses all quality parts, name brands, high end hardware, which in my opinion is outdated in 3 months anyways, but they do look nice. I personally don't like AMD processors, I have had nothing but problems with them in the past and got burned many many times with them. Literally in fact, the biggest problem that I run into, is AMD Processor run extremely hot, and burn up so quickly when they overheat just a tiny bit. Pentiums on the hand I find do not run as hot and can withstand ALITTLE overheating.
I am just waiting for my ole AMD to go bad in my home puter, so that I can have an excuse to go out and buy a 3.0 P4. Okay so shoot me, I have an AMD, but it was free so I had to take it. Besides that would be the only way you would get me to use AMD. Just my opinion. :dg:

[rambo]

Yeah, i always make sure i have double fans in all my pcs, the biggest problem nowadays is overheating. Those damn titanium apples are like nerd porn though...if they werent so overpriced and incompatible, i would dry hump one. They just look so damn good :)

I'm with you on this one. I hate the AMD's. I'm still runnin a P III 933 with 448 RAM in my machine and it runs way faster than my dad's who opted for the AMD 1600 XP chip - believe it runs at 1.4, with 256 MB RAM. Plus I feel that it was that chip that kept making his computer crash and not any of the software I installed on his system. I buy nothing but Intel P's for myself.
