Laptops & Notebooks - May 2007

I haven't bought a laptop before and was thinking of buying one. I dont have much money so is there any place I could buy one used but in good condition? Also, what kind of things should I look for before buying it? And whats the difference betwen a laptop and a notebook? which is better? sorry for all the questions. Thanks for your help!

The screen is blank. When the power cord is taken out the IDE light goes out. The IDE is the only light on. I hold the power button but the power won't turn on. The IDE light is the icon for the DVD drive but there is no CD in the drive. The screen is blank and there is no sound at all. I put a CD in but nothing happens. The computer is a laptop HP Pavilion dv5000 notebook.

Just wondering of anyone has used this brand and whether you like it or not. I seriously need a laptop and I'm considering this brand but want some feedback first. Dell or Toshiba are my other possibilities. Thanks!

I have an HP Pavilion dv9207us laptop with a 120GB Hard Drive, 1GB RAM, an Intel Core Duo Processor T2250 and Windows Vista Home Premium. I know that I have two processors, but do I have two 32-bit processors or do I have two 64-bit processors? If I do have two 32-bit processors, does that mean that it can handle 64-bit? If you have a reference, please let me know where you got your information.

I have one, and so does my dad. I got it 3 years ago, and it started screwing up 2 1/2 years ago--so did my dads'. We have even both sent ours to get it fixed and gateway does a HORRIBLE job with that..they don't fix it permenantely, and they don't tell you what they did to it. They just send you a slip and tell you they "fixed it". And, really bad customer service.

i get probably about 5 device driver errors a day that causes my computer to shut down( blue screen of death) i've come to get used to this, but it's still a pain, and my computer is REALLY slow. It says there is low disk drive space all the time, but i checked the harddrive, and there isn't. My dad's computer constantly gets overheated and shuts down randomly.

I wish i never got a gateway. I should have gotten a sony again...my sony lasted 5 years years of hardcore use in college.

Does anyone agree with this about gateway?

I now understand that I can NOT use my wireless router to connect to my DIAL UP internet wirelessly...it's only for broadband.

BUT>>>

Does this mean I can, or can NOT use the router for DSL? It's broadband in the sense that it's fast, but it still uses a phone line, so is it out of the picture w/ a wireless router? (Single laptop use, no tandem computers here.)
