Just to further cloud the issue of what costs too much in the computer department,
I ordered a new laptop today. It's going to be a combination office and DJ
machine for me. I WANTED hefty and big, more screen space for writing/testing
code and more weight to make it harder to knock off the table while I'm working
the wax.
So, Dell Inspiron 1720. 17" wide screen display, I upgraded to a 1920 x 1200
resolution, Core 2 Duo at 2.0 Ghz, 256 MB nVidia 8600m GT video card, 1 GB
of memory (I'll upgrade that with Crucial after the fact), 120 GB SATA drive
(again, I'll upgrade that later).
$1280 including tax and shipping.
Opinions?
