So I'm going to Europe next summer to study abroad and I want to take a laptop so I can get email, write my papers, play *some* games, DVD movies, etc. I will probably sell/trade my desktop and add money to get this. Problem is, I have a Dell and no one wants a second hand Dell.
Here's my system
P4 1.9 GHz
512 MB DDR 2100 RAM
40x (burns at 32 for some reason) CDRW
16x DVD
floppy drive
2 front USB ports and a headphone jack
ATI Radeon 9700 PRO AIW
Linksys WMP Wireless PCI Card
Samsung SyncMaster 172T 17" LCD Monitor
Windows XP Home
I know that I could part out the LCD and the video card for $500 and $250 respectively.
I want good, solid laptop. Lightweight. New or slightly used. Wondering if I should get it now or in the spring. Help!!!!!
edit: i'll be back on to check late tonight. Help me out guys.
