OK all you computer savvy people, I am finally going to get a laptop so that we can stay in touch on the road. I would appreciate any recommendations. Please remember that while I can use one, I am not a geek and just understand the basics of computerese. For example, I frequently forget the the simplest cure for many problems is to reboot and only get there with prompting after asking for help from a variety of sources. I do use Firefox, but I am still using outlook express for email. I do have several spyware, adware, virus scans that I use regularly. I know I need WIFI in the latest version available. Has anyone tried Verizon's service for wireless internet? I do not need fancy graphics or music functions. I would like as large a screen as possible. I am leaning towards Toshiba per Consumer's Report, but I want some other input. Thank you, Armand
