[AT] OT - Laptop reccomendations

[Bo]

Mike , I use a ACER aspire 3002lci here at the shop . Purchased it off of 
internet for 635.00 and came wireless ready .The purchase price included an 
extra 512 mb of ram .Have only used it since October of 05 and it does 
everything my desktop does . Can`t say enough for it .

Subject: [AT] OT - Laptop reccomendations


I've been thinking about sidelining our desktop and switching to a laptop 
instead. Ideally, I would like to install a wireless router so that my wife 
and I are not tied to the desk if we want to surf the web or read email. My 
question is, what type should I be looking for, and what features are 
important? I know very little about the chip sets used in laptops, and how 
they compare with the ones used in desktops. Here's what I would need the 
laptop to do. Internet and email (wireless), Microsoft Office applications, 
digital camera storage. Our desktop is a PIII 1GZ and it works just fine for 
what we do. Any thoughts with regards to brands/features would be 
appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
