I bought a new Toshiba laptop from them 2 1/2 months ago. It was on sale with a store rebate. I am just now getting around to mailing it to the rebate center. The store says they probably will not honor it at this time. However they gave me another phone number to a company called Young America that issues the rebate program. Does anyone know anything about this?

I am interested in purchasing a note book (what is the difference between a notebook and a laptop or is it the same thing with different names) that i will use simply for writing and possibly putting one game on (like age of empires or so forth nothing fancy), i would like it to have vista home basic and my final (and weird question) is whether or not you can build it so it looks like a mac book? I love the design of the macs. but i use strictly Microsoft. Can this be built? How much do you think this would cost to have some one build it if it is possible? If it isent possible can you guys recommend a site or type of computer that looks simmilar to a mac book?

I was wondering, I have a bag that I plan on using when I go away to college in the fall, it has two small circular magnets in the front that hold it shut... I want to be able to carry my MacBook in it b/c it has padding and is easy to carry.. My only fear is that the magnets would clear my MacBook or something... Does anyone know if I have anything to worry about with putting my computer in it or no? Thanks A Bunch!!

I'm looking at notebook computers and have narrowed it down to two comparable machines. The main difference betwen them is that the one with the faster processor has a slower bus speed. Between the two machines, there is no significant difference in price (maybe $100 at the most for the one with the slower processor but the faster bus)

Which would you go with and why?

i keep my laptop on a flat surface &its generally okay with staying cool and everything, apart from when i play DVD's on it, then it gets quite hot from the bottom even when the fans working well, so i was wondering if a laptop cooler would help.
and could you recommend a specific one, i use an acer aspire 300.

Anyone tried using Samsung RAM? Are they reliable? Given all others being equal how do they compare to Corsair, Crucial or Kingston?

I'm about to buy a computer for law school and I was wondering if the specs I have picked out will be suitable. I am mostly gonna use it for word processing but will also have some music on it. Not much into gaming so that shouldn't be a problem. I'm mostly concerned about overheating problem cause my Dell sucked. I was looking at a HP dv2000t with these specs.......
-Operating System Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic (32-bit)
-Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo processor T2350 (1.86 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 533MHz FSB)
-Display 14.1" WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1280 x 800)
-Memory 2GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)
-Graphics Card 128MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 7200
-Networking Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection and Bluetooth(TM)
-Hard Drive 160GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive

Open to any other suggestions....Looking to spend between $1500-$1800

Thanks in advance.....

I have a G4 Apple Powerbook and I generally use the most recent version of Firefox, but I also have Safari & Internet Explorer. I'm waiting for something to become available online, and I'm impatient, so I want to know the minute it's there. But, I want to do other things then just click refresh over and over and over again. Is it possible to set it so that it will automatically refresh the page every couple of minutes so I don't have to do it?

I feel like I've just wasted half my life, or several hours of it anyway, searching Ebay, Froogle, Craigslist, Target, Walmart, Best Buy and Circuit City trying to find the best deal on a laptop!
I know I need at least 80gb hard drive. And I know I need it to be able to do wireless as I will be using a router for home networking.
And that's about all I know. I've never had a laptop, only home desktops.
My confusion is seeing prices for some laptops with only 20 gb being more expensive than some that have 80gb and I can't figure out why the difference in prices? Why sometimes it seems like laptops with better features are cheaper than others? I feel like I'm missing something here.
I'm hoping someone might explain the process on how to pick a laptop, maybe point me to a good one I could buy online safely, and last tell me if I'm out of my mind to think I can get one for 400$ or less. The cheapest I've found so far is 448$ at the Walmart website.
