Not that there's anything wrong with shoot 'em ups and battles and grand theft auto. (yeah, right) The thing is, Vista has just been replaced by Windows 7. If you want to keep XP, you pretty much can only get it by buying a netbook. If you decide to move to a newer version of Windows, skip right over Vista and Windows 7, because not only was Vista much disliked, it's now becoming obsolete. With 7, you can use a classic Windows view, by the way. OF COURSE I KNEW U WERE KIDDING!!! |

This is good to know, Lisanne.:thumbup: |

Does EQ need to run from a disk, or does it install right into your computer? Either way, it might be worthwhile to just buy an external CD-ROM drive along with a netbook. You also need to find out whether it can run in Windows 7. |
Mousie, I can honestly say that once you go MAC you'll never go back. Now that I have an iMac for my desktop, I can't think that I'll ever use windows again. Just think, don't have to worry about virus', etc! It never slows down or crashed.
Plus, I use my ipod touch as my portable computer. It doesn't get any better than that! |
Every two years I buy the cheapest computer WalMart or Best Buy has. I keep the same monitor a big flat screen, just buy the tower. I pay about $250 for it. This way I'm getting the new computer speed and upgrades without shelling out a lot of cash. Right now I have the cheap E machine and it has been the best. Lightening fast and lots of free space. I won't feel bad at all in two years tossing the tower, I paid $125 for it, marked down at WalMart, as the monitor in the set was broken.

I love Windows 7!! Vista has a lot of issues and I bought my daughter a new HP with Windows 7 Profesional, 320 gig HD, 4 gig ram, AMD Dual core 64 bit processor, built in web cam, 15.5 widescreen for the low price of $399 at Tiger Direct.com before Christmas.
Tiger Direct is the place to go if you are buying and Windows 7 is the stuff!! Billy |
DH bought me an Acer laptop for Christmas. I love it. It has Windows 7. It cost about $450 from HSN. It does everything I need it to do and has the ability to do alot of things I don't use. (Web cam, burn dvds, etc.) It has a 17 inch screen.
