HAHA. Pretty much hit the nail on the head with that post! Lol.

Actually, i'm pretty much looking at getting an HP as SIMPLES14 suggest, for around 700 or less. Not sure which model/etc, but so far they seem to fit my needs for a good price. I've also been recomended Toshibas for the same price range.... I wish I could just hand someone 500-700 bucks that i trust and say, bring me a good computer thingy.

I'm not even going to CONSIDER a mac. Too much money for what i need. So lets just check that one off the list now. Lol.

lol. Thanks for all the posts guys.;
