New Laptop
So I had some extra crap laying around that I finally put up on ebay. Melissa has been getting on me about getting her “own” laptop so I started looking a few weeks ago.
Finally ended up buying her another Gateway. I sold our old Gateway to her parents for cheap since they didn’t have a computer, and it was perfect for what they need it for.
Anyway, Office Depot had this new Gateway for $849 with a $150 rebate. (no longer $150 off)
17 Inch Screen 1440×900
Intel Dual Core 2060
160GB Drive
1GB ram (which I am going to upgrade to 2GB)
DVD/CD Burner
Vista Home Premium
and most importantly (at least for Melissa) it has a full size keyboard. With her being a Realtor now it is somewhat of a pain to type numbers on a laptop keyboard.
Not bad for $699
