For work & play looking for a multi purpose machine. right now I have a Dell
Inspiron 9100 & I hate it I have had it maybe 3yrs. also may I add when it comes to computers I still have alot to learn.
 
i would go with the HP DV series. I personally own the dv1040t, which i absolutely love, but i have friends and colleagues with almost every other model of that DV series, and everyone that i know loves it!
 
Off to Best Buy to take at look at what they have. the guys over there I know will try and sell me something.
 
Ok just got back from Best Buy I bought the HP: SE Pavilion, DV6358SE

If anybody has one let me know what you think.
 
should be a very good computer, what specs did you get?

I have no clue what you are saying :o I am just not very good when it comes to these things, but this is what that listed.
thats why I joined this forum so I can learn from the pro's :D
