    Dude...I'm Gettin A Dell

    OK since my poll I ran I decided to go ahead and get the Dell Notebook. I didn't need anything outrageous so I just ordered the Inspiron 1100 which is $849.00 - $250.00 mailin rebate = $599.00 with free shipping.

    Not a bad deal, it's got:

    Intel Celeron 2.3Ghz
    256MB DDR Ram
    20GB Ultra ATA HDD

            i plan on getting a dell lappy soon ;]

            Often times I wonder why
            There's love and hate, theres live or die.
            When sickness comes I must decide:
            When feelings go, theres suicide.

                      I have used many celerons and so have some friends of mine, they have never once had a compatibility problem with other hardware or software and a celeron is the same as a pentium just a slower class

                            Dunno what you guys are smoking, celerons are fine. Yes, they have less on board cache and are a little slower, but they don't have compatibility issues with anything a 'full' chip does.

                            I have a 1.8ghz laptop with 512mb ram and I constantly swap out winxp and linux on it and I've never had an issue, great little laptop.

                                  Bad move, any modern Windows OS really needs 512 MB RAM atleast, and the most you'll be doing with that Celeron is surfing the web + checking email, one at a time

                                        I'll take another mac please, but that's pretty damn cheap. Although you can pick up a refurbished iBook for about $650 now.

                                                whats not legible about buying my cheap ass friend his first computer with a celeron? Weird compatibility issues ranging from norton among other things, maybe it was a freak box, fuck if I know. But for a few dollars more just grab the Pentium. Juat an experience.

                                                  Should have built it yourself, could have gotten a way better deal.

                                                    Your mail-in rebate won't come. Also, Dell tech support is absolutely ridiculous, so don't get your hopes up too high with your order.

                                                      I misread the thread. I thought he said Dude... I'm Getting a Doll. Real Doll makes another sale!

                                                        I ordered one from Dell last Saturday night at about midnight. The unit wasn't supposed to ship until this coming Monday. It has already shown up along with the free printer and my mail in rebate certificate on Wednesday afternoon.

                                                        So far Dell has impressed the hell out of me.

                                                        Spend you some brain.

                                                          I solved all these problems with the 3 laptops I bought from Dell by ALWAYS (as a standard procedure) reloading the OS when I got a new computer from Dell. Solves problems before they happen. Another problem with Dells.... mouse drivers for laptops. Solution: turn off all mouse devices except one.

                                                            Dell is one of the best out there.Spend a few extra bucks and get a P4 ..you'll have less headaches and downtime with a quality box.
