new laptop purchase
Haven't shopped for laptops (win 7 with min 4gig ram) for several
years now so before I scour the net, any good Dell laptops to consider for the wife? Nothing fancy in useage. I'm looking in the approx $500 or less range. Prefer Dells to others tho. Any recommended sites beside Amazon, Newegg and Dell? I checked Dell's outlet and wasn't impressed. I would consider Ebay under certain restrictions. |

I buy from the Dell small business outlet and find
pretty good machines there. Latitude 6400/6500 seem to have a 3yr warranty. Make up a small business name, if you don't have one. For some reason they always want it. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |

Nothing fancy, but it's fast and so far reliable for email/browsing, etc. I bought it at the BestBuy store. I almost bought one for myself as an extra. Good luck. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dell+-+1...iron+Laptop+-+ 4GB+Memory+-+500GB+Hard+Drive+-+Black/5023069.p?id=1218608975854&skuId= 5023069 or http://tinyurl.com/84hhnbu |

After shopping around on line, I decided to not make a big project out of it and went to BB to buy this laptop. Like you said nothing fancy but it works. It's for my wife so it's plenty good enough for her needs. Thank you Boris. |
