All the LTs made in the last few years come with a wireless lan connection.

Answer 2

Laptops today come with internal wireless cards you can turn on and off (it's a little button in front usually).
So as soon as you come in range of a wireless network you have the option of connecting.

There's not a whole lot to get about an internet connection - it's from a land line, either over the phone, cable or fiber optics. Wireless networks (wi-fi) send the internet over the air from a router that's hooked directly to the line.

A good inexpensive laptop right now are the toshibas. Under a thousand with lots of room and power to do your stuff.
Vista makes it a little null sometimes when I'm running Photoshop but for the most part it's all right.

Answer 3

I recommend the Toshiba Satellite U205-S5067 laptops

Intel core duo
2 GB of RAM
Intel Centrino DUO 160 GB Hard drive
56K Modem
100 Ethernet

What are your price ranges because Toshiba laptops happen to be very cheap and reliable at the same time.

Answer 4

i would recommend scrapping the whole idea of a laptop!
they are over priced, underpowered,under cooled non upgradeable and consume batteries every three years whether you use it or not replacements average £100 in the UK.

put your money towards a desktop
pound for pound you will get a better,faster machine which could in three years time have the £100 that you would have squandered on a lappy battery spent on a memory or graphics card upgrade!
