I need help on what I need to buy or do.

I need to buy a laptop and have no idea what to get! HELP?

• ok I have approx. 400 to 500 dollars to spend on a laptop, I need fast speed, good hard drive space, and wireless internet anywhere, not just wifi. I don't know how many gbs to get nor do i know how much hard drive i need...I want to be able to burn and play cds and dvds, I need microsoft office 2007, I think, I need it to be fast and quiet. I don't want a heavy or big laptop but not a mini. I need to know how much running time the battery should be in order to work good and I am using it for college. If i have a wireless card built in the computer, do I still have to purchase a wireless card from the internet company in order to get dsl anywhere or can they use the wireless card in my laptop??? I know I have alot of questions but I want to buy the right thing.....and what brand of computer should I gett???

• Answer:

  If you want fast speed using programs on your computer, it is best to get a dual-core processor. Dual-Core processors are better than single core processors. Think of it as "Two heads are better than one" All laptops should have a wireless network scanner so you shouldn't worry about that. Wireless internet anywhere will require payment to a company that will supply you with a USB or whatever that will access the internet for you. I'm not so sure about weight, so that is up to you. $400-$500 might not be enough for what you want. So try keep saving :D Just keep this in mind. 1. A Dual-Core processor. 2. Payment to a certain company is needed for wireless internet. Wish you the best of luck!!!
