so many of you know my beautiful yellow Dell named Soli was stolen in Cuba. Au Abroad gave me one of their old laptops but unfortunately this computer will not be here for the long haul. The screen is jumping and there is a weird line at the bottom of the screen that shows a mirage of the taskbar (the task bar is set to be at the top of the screen, by the way)
I have an external harddrive so I am not concerned about losing my work. I am concerned, however, with this computer dying on me and leaving me once again without a laptop!
So:
any recommendations for a good laptop? should I get a mac?
i know macs to be good systems, but really my hang ups are price and learning a new system in the middle of my research. I could easily get a new dell for half the price of a mac.
decision, decisions.
feel free to give me your opinions. (I changed the settings so anyone can comment on my blog. You do not have to open an account)
There are now computers out there that use the Apple technology but do not have the same high cost as a MAC.
ReplyDeleteHave you checked the Price of a New
ReplyDeletecomputer while in Panama, and can it br written off as a project expense???. Also check in your system to reset to default settings as this might clear your problem.
