Re: OTOTOT Laptops

XP is going to be another deal breaker for me, Linda. I got no interest in
Vista.

I just bought my daughter an HP that weighs only 4 lbs. The jury is
out on it still though. We had to return the first one because it just
ran too slowww. The tech guy told us that the processor really wasn't
good for Vista (then why did they sell it?) and that you couldn't get
it with XP. It cost us an extra $100 to exchange it for the next model
up, but she seems to like it. She's only had it for a week though.

You mentioned earlier that you found an IBM that weighs only three
pounds.
(It is actually probably a Lenovo, since IBM sold their PC business.)
Are
you still considering that one? I have always had IBM computers and
they
have been very reliable. I've never had one of their laptops, but they
are
supposed to be good.

This is harder than buying a car.

The talk last week about laptops has got me thinking.

I think I want a Mac Air.

Rather than clog up the NG with such OT stuff, would someone
Apple-literate
contact me at cindypucci@xxxxxxx so I can ask some stupid questions?

Thanks,
Cindy


I don't know much about the MacBook Air specifically, but I do have to
Macs--an older iBook and a fairly new iMac. What would you like to
know?
