I heard that Apple is coming out with a new devise that is called "Newton". Is that really true or just a random rumor?

And if it it true does anyone have a pic?

What is the best desktop under $800?

I have looked at the hp a6230n, which has the following:
3 gigs ram
400 gb hard drive (7200 rpm)
AMD processor 5600+ at 2.8 ghz
Nvidia 6150 graphics (not the best...)
Also includes lightscribe which is pretty nice.

Any ideas will be accepted

I am confused. I want to update my RAM, so I have looked at a few websites which tell me how to do it. Most tell me to touch the case the discharge my static, and some suggest an anti-static wristband- which do you suggest? They are also divided about whether the power(obviously off) should be plugged in or not, I don't know what to do.

When I connect the computer through VGA to component cables I get a message saying "not supported mode" I have tried lowering and raising the resolution along with refresh rate. Also tried using several other laptops and still getting the same results. I'm fresh out of ideas anyone know what's wrong?

When I try to start my HP 1012 LaserJet printer, it shows 3 flashing yellow lights on the right side where the control buttons and lights are instead of the usual green light, which means it's ready to print. I've lost my HP instruction booklet. HP did not respond to my email for help. Any helpful advice much appreciated!
