Next day I see this add for the HP at Fry's and I run over and get it...My pastor bought an HP the night before. So once again we bought our new laptops within days of each other lol...

MUST be God!!!! 
No....wait......if it was God, you'd have BOTH bought a Mac!

Re: New Laptop
I looked at a laptop in Chile as mine is giving me problems but they were out of my reach...
Maybe next time I am in the USA I will buy one at Walmart or some cheaper store...I would really like to have a real small light weight one because we travel so much.

No way. HPs are great laptops and I don't have to send away for one. I get a 2 year service contract for under $50

Why?
Do some research. Examine your needs and wants and your cost. If I wanted a Game machine I might have bought a high end Dell or HP. But I have a Desktop to do that (and more so since I am in the process of building another one)...
You might save yourself a lot of money after doing so. Just don't get anything with a celeron.
BTW I have a genuine Core 2 Duo, which is the best Dual core CPU on the market as we speak and uses less power which makes it the ideal laptop CPU. You might save more money with an AMD, but this is why I hit this deal at the price with an Intel

You don't have to "send away" for a Dell. They are sold at Best Buy, Staples, Sams Club, Wal Mart, and soon to be many other places.
HP's are nice also. I just have a financial interest in Dell's success and they do make a very good product.

Any suggestions, anyone?
btw, congrats, Prax!!

Ah I see. You are right. I don't shop BB much anymore. Too expensive but unfortunately I don't think Fry's sells Dells

LOL Good idea. But......... do they offer the program he is interested in (Computer Science degree specializing in video animation and game design)?
And can we afford it?
Oh wait! I forgot. He's already signed up and set to go to Shawnee State University in Portmouth, Ohio. Rats! Wish we woulda known about this huge incentive a few months ago. 
Now, I say all that a little tongue in cheek. But now you've peaked my interest and I'm going to go and do a google search for that school.
