I am now posting using Google because I am trying to learn how to use my new laptop. My older laptop started to show signs of its immiment demise (just about 7 years old) so I bit the bullet and ordered a new one with all the bells and whistles I could afford since I keep them forever. This one has Vista and a 17" screen along with a 260 GB hard drive, DVD writer, bluetooth and wireless built in. The Vista alone will take me a month of sundays to learn but then I opened the new Office 2007. WOW - what a difference.
I love the larger screen and Vista is just stunning no matter what the critics say! I am having a bit of a problem getting my newsreader to work through Windows Mail (formerly Outlook Express) but I'll figure that out. At least I can use Google for now.
I am going to view a DVD on this tomorrow. I am hoping it will be spectacular since I upgraded my video card.
When I was looking at the reviews for this laptop (a Dell 1705), I found out that there was an "e-coupon" for it. It saved my $525 on this puppy! Paid for most of my upgrades. So, if you are going to make a major purchase, do yourself a favor and check out e-coupon dot com. NAYY.
Ok, I have to figure out what this button does now........
