[huck]

So, I went to the HP website and decided to customize a laptop. I'll use it mainly for downloading movies, playing some games (such as Civ IV), browsing the internet, etc.


Operating System Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Home Edition with SP2

Processor Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 530 w/HT Technology, 3.0GHz

Display 17.0" WXGA+ BrightView Wide Viewing (1440x900)

Memory 1.0GB DDR2 SDRAM, 533MHz (2x512MB)

Hard Drive 80 GB 5400 RPM Hard Drive (and I have a 120 GB xbox for storing movies)

Primary CD/DVD Drive DVD+/-RW/R & CD-RW Combo w/Double Layer Support

Graphics Card 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) X600

Networking 54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth

Primary Battery 12 Cell Lithium Ion Battery

$1400 or so..., with a free HP PSC 1410 All-in-One printer thrown in...

I read that the ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) X600 isn't the best card, but I'm not a serious gamer, so I don't think it'll be a problem. I've had my current laptop for 3 1/2 years, and I've never had problems with it, but I'm looking for something that'll be good for another 2 years or so...

thanks
