I'm a long time PC user but want to buy my first Macbook. I want the mobility of a laptop, but do not want it too big, i.e. 17". When I pretend to buy one online I just get overwhelmed. I would like to buy a very basic set up and then add things as I go or need them. I want to use this for photo editing, video editing and maybe someday music creation. I am wanting to add programs like photoshop and possibly XP and other programs.

Could anybody advise me on what is the most basic set up I could buy and add to? Like I don't know if laptops can add RPMs, memory, hard drive and other essentials after purchase. Since I want to work with websites as well, would a 13" be too small? Does mac make a GREAT 13" model that can do everything I've suggested and allow me to grow with it? I have a little money to spend, but I don't want to go overboard on too much RAM, Memory or hard drive or screen size if I don't really need it or will never fill it up in my life time!

Thanks!

Please help! There are two Cox e-mail users in this office and neither of us can log into our accounts. Our internet conncetion is fine and we can both log into our personal e-mail accounts, but our business accounts are inaccessible and have been for a few days. We are using the correct username and password, there is no doubt about that. When we try to log in, we get a message saying that the username and password do not match up. I have tried getting help from Cox's technical support group, but they were of absolutely no help. I tried contacting them by e-mail, live chat and phone, but they were confused and just kept directing me to other departments. Please help, we need to get into our e-mail, as a lot of our business depends on it! Thank you!

I was looking on ebay and I found a Panasonic Toughbook CF-28 with GPS. It says it has 30 GB of hard drive capacity. would that be a good laptop for large games? (like would 30 GB be enough to play World of Warcraft AND The Sims? which are two very large games which take up a lot of hard drive space.) And for those of you who have Toughbooks , does the laptop have a built in internet card?

I recently purchased a Dell with duo core 1.8, and 1g ram, 64k vid card raytheon9500. This seems to meet the min req on the box. But when I start to play, the game shuts down.

Q: what can I do to improve the performance of my machine so I can play this $50 game?
Is it possible to change the video card on a notebook?
Would adding RAM solve this issue?

Any ideas?

I already had a dual video card in my computer and have used it now for over a year. Well, I had to recover my computer and now I have to set it up again. I know that I have to go into the control panel but I can't figure it out from there. I called Best Buy Geek Squad but they want to charge me money. Can anyone help me?

Why won't WMP play videos when I click on the link?
New computer. I have WMP 11 and Windows Vista.

I can "copy shortcut" on the web page and then "file/open url" and copy the shortcut to the WMP and the video plays just fine. However, when I try clicking the link a new tab opens saying "Internet Explorer cannot display web page".

I've researched the WMP and Windows help page and forums without any luck. I've downloaded a variety of codexes with no luck.

The files I'm trying to view are mainly wmv files so it makes no sense.

I can't figure out if this is a WMP problem or if there is some security setting I'm not aware of that is preventing me from being able to do this.

Can anybody offer me any possible solutions please?
