Laptops & Notebooks - January 2007

Okay, so I’m planning on getting a new laptop this weekend but Windows Vista is being release on the 30th. Should I buy a Windows XP laptop or preorder a laptop with the new window? Is Windows Vista really that great or will it be like Windows Me that was meant for failure?

I appreciate everyone who answered by previous question on the laptop which i bought in USA to make it work in India. I thank you all for your answers.
I highly appreciate if you can answer me the following questions as well:
1. The AC adapter of my DELL Latitude Laptop has the following configuration:
***********************************************
INPUT: AC 100-240V ~1.5A(1,5A)
50-60HZ
OUTPUT: DC 19.5V(19,5V) 4.62A(4,62A)
***********************************************
Does the above configuration mean that i can use the AC adapter for my laptop (which i bought in USA) for Indian Power supply as well? If not, then do i have to buy Step-down transformer? What other options do i have(i mean, what is the safest and the best option available for me)

2. Some say that since the configuration of the AC adapter for my laptop(as can be seen above) matches Indian as well as US config for power supply, i need not buy any step-up transformer to work in India. Is that true?

Hi all,
I bought DELL Latitude D610 and IBM ThinkPad when i was in USA. Now since i had to temporarily move to India, i have some important issues to ask.

US used 60HZ and 110V power supply electricity whereas India uses 50HZ, 240V (as most of the european countries).
So, now, if i want to use my laptop adapter in India to charge my laptop, Can i do that? Did anybody try that? I don't want to connect to 240V power supply and later find that the system has been blown up... i cannot afford to do that...

Any advises (if you had experience) will be highly appreciated.

I know Go 7600 has a seperate memory like 128Mb or 256Mb but I dont know if x1400 uses the main memory of computer or it also has its own memory. So which graphic card would you go with if u were me and why?Advantages and disadvantages?

My battery has been lasting w/o the cord for about 20 minutes and about 5 when playing a movie.

Now it won't even stay on when unplugged like it's not a laptop anymore, just a desk computer.

Could it be loose? Can I charge this battery like a car battery? Any suggestions?
