trilete312 0 #5 December 31, 2002 Which one? P4 2.0, P3 933, Athlon 650. Sad thing is the oldest is barely 3 years old and is so outdated it is sad. O yea, one is a Best Buy Clone, one is Dell, one is an IBM. The Best Buy Clone (VPN Matrix) has been the one that has been most trustworthy and had fewer Blue Screens of Death.

pilotdave 0 #8 December 31, 2002 Mine was a gateway until I upgraded everything in it. Only thing gateway about it now is the case. Its an Athlon XP 1700 now with 512 megs of ram and a total of 90 gigs of hard drive space. For the next 2 weeks I'll be using this crappy Dell laptop, running WinME, which I inherited after my brother got too frustrated with it and bought a new laptop. As soon as I get back to school I'll get XP on this thing and see if it works any better. It has problems like diagonal rows of keys just not working for a while, and the touchpad has a mind of its own sometimes and moves the cursor very slowly in a random direction. It's also a crappy model that can't have the floppy and CD drives installed at the same time. There's no room for both. But, it can get online which is all I plan to use it for.
