I think that Dan has definitely described my situation. I'm not a gamer and only need 8M memory because I leave too man tabs open in my browsers. So if anything, I'll tend to try to hit the low end of my budget. Anyway, I just got back from an appointment to find my computer dead. It reboot but it's probably closer to the end than I thought. So I'll visit Staples, Costco, Best Buy and maybe Office Max and purchase the best deal I can find. Thanks again for all the input.

My 4 year old HP Pavilion DM4 is starting to die. It's had too many bluescreens recently and the OS can't detect the DVD player (the BIOS does). So it's probably time for a replacement. Could you please suggest laptops, matching the following criteria, that you would recommend. Important: $500 to $750 tops 8M memory Either has SSD or can add one 1T disk Not important: Screen size (I mostly use a monitor) Weight (I don't travel much with it) Battery life (I mostly plug in) Thanks in advance for all your input.

Congrats, Vicki! I'm sure that Ivan will enjoy having another minion.

Happy Birthday, Birgir! :prettyprincess: Hopefully somebody bakes you a cake today.

That looks almost as good as Naaman's brisket.

Happy Birthday, Greg! :prettyprincess: Hope that it's been a great one and that you are still going strong.

I'd never heard of Sir Nicholas before reading this thread. But tonight I'll celebrate a great man, who, when faced with a tough situation, did what every human should do and so few seem to do. RIP Sir Nicholas!

RIP, Chris.

Happy Father's Day! Neither my cat nor my birds got me anything. Damn ungrateful kids.

Congrats to the Hawks.

Colin will be very disappointed to hear that.

RIP Ornette Coleman. RIP Christopher Lee, a great life lead.

Sorry Al. It's really hard when we lose a friend. Glad you had such nice lives together. RIP Quest.

FTFY.

"Cunt" is bi-partisan.

Happy Birthday, Ben. :prettyprincess: Have a great one!

Definitely due to good taste!

All these, Marc. May your recovery be low pain and speedy!

Condolences to the Biden family. Cancer sucks.

Congrats Chicago.

It sounds like you've chosen one of them, Ryan.
