[stevenhascome]

[andyobmonkey]

what are u gonna be using it for? just internet browsing?

 

[stevenhascome]

basically, I have a dell downstairs with a cable modem with router

 

[andyobmonkey]

ok, u gonna hook it up to the router downstairs? if so i suggest u consider a wireless router, it saves u muckin around with wires and stuff

 

[stevenhascome]

yea I know but we can run a cable through the wall anyways because the computer is backed up against a wall and my room is right above the comp

 

[stevenhascome]

I think I found a really good laptop on compusa and I think I am getting it but first I have to get a job

 

[andyobmonkey]
