Planning on buying a notebook. Am sure whether to buy the warranty since the cheaper one seems to be within the scope of the manufacturers warranty. The next one is about $380 which is half the price of a new notebook. Can even be the price of a new notebook add two hundreds or so. Any advice?

Why is this? The USB port is a motherboard one.
On the previous pc the pc would crash if the printer was not on the motherboard USB port.
Any ideas for a new solution. I might use my other one with cheaper clone cartridges and print over the network also.

I have had problems with 2 different computer that wouldn't turn and. When I went to attempt to fix both of them, I almost got an entirely different computer only saving the hard drive and all of the mechanical devices and the case. I replaced the motherboard in both computers and when I went to turn the computer on, I had no video. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Could it be electra static discharge when I'm accidently bumping the metal of the case with the motherboard?
