I feel like this is a silly question, but I've never really owned a laptop before, and I'm making a rather large purchase of one with a Terrible battery life - highest rated on Cnet though, battery life is the only problem. Can I just turn off the computer and switch out the battery for a fully charged one? Like.. carry around 2-3 batteries, especially on trips or long carrides.

I have a dell and it is a few years old. The keys are screwed up and it is running slow. It doesn/t have any viruses or anything wrong with it. I think its just age. But I need a new one but don't really want to spend a whole lot. What is the best cheapest lap top I can get?

It is a Dell Inspiron and one of my keys popped off from the keyboard. I have tried at length to maneuver it back on myself, but I can't. Where can I take it where someone can fix this professionally?

Thank you all so much for your help. Just one more question.

So this is the processor that is in the laptop I bought. From ya'lls previous responses it seems that most of you say that the Core 2 Duo is superior to the Centrino, but from some responses, I am led to believe that some Centrino Duo models are built on a Core 2 Duo Processor? Am I correct in this assumption?

This is the processor I bought...
http://www.xoticpc.com/product_info.php?wconfigure=yes&products_id=2023

So does this mean the Centrino Duo Processor I bought is built on the Core 2 Duo platform and if this is so, does this mean it has any advantages over the regular Intel Core 2 Duo processor?

Thanks again!

I just installed a new (brand new) Hard Drive in to my laptop and then I shut it down and inserted my copy of Windows XP and it ran for almost two hours and then my laptop restarted itself but it said that it can't find an Operating System.

I'm sure I'm missing something simple like changing something in the BIOS, but I just dont know exacrly wht I need to change and where.

My computer is going really slow. Everything seems to take twice as long as it used to. Even when I play music or the start-up sound comes on, it is choppy and slow. I have scanned for viruses and spyware. I have updated windows, and everything else I can think to update. I have checked everything I can think of, but I still can't make it work right. Any suggestions? The computer is only a year old, and it is a hp Pavilion dv8000. I don't have a warrenty.
