Well, some of you know that I have not really an idea of technic stuff. So, I'm thinking about getting myself a laptop, but again realized I have no fucking clue. Any ideas? I tell you a bit what I do with my trusty old friend here, who sometimes already shows his age (after I think about five years now. That's a century in computer life a friend told me ). Ok, here we go: I'm awful lot in the internet, have tones of pics and music as well as short videos on my machine (and I would like to save some films on it too, friend told me to get an external hard drive...thanks that helps a lot) and I'm working on it for college, so the normal word stuff, maybe power point. I know I need something to watch my DVDs on it and to burn them otherwise I go nuts. My ex had a mac from apple and said it's the best thing he ever had. Anybody ever had one and says that the ultimate thing, you gotta go for it? Ok, I think that's it. Oh, a vage idea about the price would be good! Poor, poor student, remember? lol

I got my very first Laptop just this past February Kris. I got a Toshiba Satellite and I just love it! When all was said and done I paid $700 for mine and I didn't think that was too bad, but I am sure you can find something that you can afford. If you go to laptops.toshiba.com/ you can do some research and see what will fit your needs.

Nothing to do with the lap top lmao, but one little suggestion I will throw in, free to friends, buy an external hard drive to back up said piccies! I dont' use discs any more, it's far easier with the e-h drive.
My mate had her comp crash on her and she NEVER backed her pics up!!! She now has all my PB accounts and working her way back through them lol.
We've got three e-h drives, the amount of pics and music between Rob and myself is THAT bad he's seeing about buying a terrabite e-h drive SOON lol.
He blames my Jovi pic collection! But I'm thinking it's his 20,000+ music collection, and it's still growing lmao.

I know I need to get a hard drive. Don't have any back up for this computer here. Saw a nice one with 500 GB for about 100 Euro. Maybe I can do it next month.

Ok some one ever had the problem that when you open a file with lots of pics and you see all those little pics and then click on one, that it was another pic than the small one showed before??? And how do I change that again?
