So i'm buying a laptop! help!

Newegg.com - MSI GX640-260US NoteBook Intel Core i5 450M(2.40GHz) 15.4" Wide SXGA+ 4GB Memory 500GB HDD 7200rpm DVD Super Multi ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5850

And comes with 3 year warranty

Your new laptop is more likely to break from an accident… Treat it well and it should be fine. Got a 6 year old dell in the house that still works fine.

PaperTigre, I feel your pain about the 13inch with no good GPU. I did an Axiotron Modbook for that reason. (Axiotron = Huge mistake).

Raziel, I haven’t seen the new ones, but the XPS15 is supposed to be pretty solid. Congratulations!

thanks guys, so excited to get my first laptop. i’ve been using an 8 year old desktop for… the last 8 years lol
