Default Re: About to buy first Windows based laptop in the next 30 minutes

Keep going back between building a desktop or buying another laptop after the first one from Dell didn't work and was a bit to huge i think--17 inchs and like $1400.
Was leaning toward desktop but then I realized..football season is coming up so on Sundays I'm probably going to be on the couch/bed all day...so went back to laptop, and may just upgrade my old built desktop with a new 204b screen and some extra memory.

Good Deal for $1000? We're basically looking at PaHud/PT/and 2-4 tables at a time.
