Purchasing new laptop - would now have the XP. Yet I understand Vista (new operating system) could be out by 1st of the year (but then may be delayed also). If you're a 'pro' in this department, we'd appreciate your recommendations. Use for e-mail, pictures, small business operations.(Media/entertainment not that important).

By the way they power on but i dont hear the fan spinning or anything like that. What could be the problem?? I have checked the memory and the HDD and their not the problem. I think its the motherboard. If so, were can I get cheap motherboard repair?? (under 100) or a motherboard (under 150) I can install it myself.
Thanks for the help

Some friends say it should be up to 7-8 hours, but my uncle says the most is 3 hours. Should I keep one that lasts 2 hours or are there really some that stay up to 8 hours?

It seems the right size but would the libretto recognise it. The libretto has a p75 processor and 16mB of memory.

I have an Advent 7016 laptop running Windows XP version 5.1.2600 with an Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz about 3 years old. When I switch it off it gains time, sometimes up to 2 months overnight. I can understand losing time as the battery fails but how can it gain time?

When I open applications they take a long time to open (when I just opened FireFox it took over 30 seconds) It never used to take so long. Also When I try to Run PhotoSHop Elelments 4.0 my computer freezes up. My task Manager shows that I am running at 100% cpu. My laptop is a Fujitsu with sempron 3000 and 512mb - not quite state of the art but good enough i would have thought. Any ideas why it is being so slow? How to check?

I'm looking for something reasonably small with internet facility, Wi-fi, email and messenger.

i've looked some phones such as Nokia N80 but they don't seem to quite there yet with connection speed, etc.

Has anyone any experience of the Nokia 770 tablet, or what about the Blackberry?

My laptop does the job but looking for something much much smaller.

Thanks in advance.
