I have been shopping around for a laptop and I was wondering why they have smaller processors than desktops.

an easy question if you know it
the second function on my laptop, "Fn" works sometimes, but not always. I constantly use this function for volume, and sometimes it stops working-
I assume I inadvertantly pressed a "lock" of some sort, but i've tried every combination to release it, with no luck. How do I get it working again??

I have a Dell Insprion 1000 that is virtually dead (if you adjust the screen at all, or even bump it for that matter it locks the hard drive and kills the video to the screen (anyone know how to fix this?)) and I was wondering if there is any way to get Dell to replace it even though it is no longer under warranty?

My current laptop bag can't hold much more and it's a bit outdated. I have a 17" laptop. I don't want the typical bulky Targus Bag. I'd like something a bit more stylish. Any suggestions?

$1,099.00 or as low as $26 a month

do they mean instead of paying the $1,099.00 all at once, you can pay $26 a month until you payed it all off? like lay-away or something? thanks!

I want to sell my Toshiba Satellite. I bought it for about $600.00 less than a year ago. I don't have a picture of my actual one, but here's what it looks like.

Also, the "U" key is kind of falling off, if that means anything (but it still works).

Thank you!

I like the small sony vaio but it feels like it will fall apart in my hands and it's pricey. I need a keyboard and a decent screen so a pocket pc won't do. Are there any other brands out there?

I love my Intel card. The thing is, there are too many games that aren't compatible with the Intel chipset - 2 so far that I have experienced for myself; Age of Empires 3 and Marc Ecko's Getting Up. Neither of them work due to the card.

I want a Radeon card - they are compatible with most anything. The question is, where can I get it and how much will it cost?

Husband says he has bought 2 computers from pawn shops and one was a laptop that worked good and fast. I am not familiar with pawn shopping and the 30 day guarentee and used merchandise scares me for such a purchase. What are your thoughts?

I'm getting a notebook, 2 gHz processor, 2 gB ram, 5400 rpm hard drive, 12 cell lithium ion battery.

Wikipedia says that the Core Duo is just a stopgap measure between the Pentium brand name and the Core 2 Duo, which will be much better.

However, I will only use my computer for law school work, powerpoints, maybe a little gaming, but not hardcore graphics-heavy, recent games. If I don't order now, I won't have the computer in time for law school. Will the improvement make enough difference to me to be worth the wait?
