| 604680 | 2007-10-24 01:35:00 | Mate about to buy his first computer. He wants a laptop as he doesn't have a handy dedicated area to operate. What do I advise him to get,I have ideas,but you folks are better able to advise than me. 1. laptop........make? 2 wireless modem...what one etc 3.Cordless mouse..thats me........ Just to say he is not sure what a computer is, so nothing fancy. |

| 604682 | 2007-10-24 02:00:00 | Go with Dell! Have been very happy with their systems, and been plesantly surprised by the quality of their technical support. Would recommend them 100% for anyone who's not a PC expert (i.e. doesn't want a custom built system). | somebody (208) | ||
