Laptop

[Kaye]

I am looking for some advise on a laptop. I'm looking for something that I can FaceBook with my family and my pics will look good on (the one that I take that are good). Also will be going wireless.

Any advise would be appreciated. Not looking for anything to $$ because I will still be using my PC a lot.

Thanks

Anyone have the HP Pavilion Entertainment? My cousin has one and loves it.

You can do that with any laptop. Maybe you should just take care to buy one with built-in wi-fi card, so you don't have to buy it separately.

I have one HP laptop, and I hate it, but that's just probably my model, I know that they're the #1 laptop brand.
I also have a Gateway laptop which I simply adore. Basically, just look for a model that has the right screen size (and look), some good hard drive and preferably not less than 1 GB of RAM memory and you'll be fine.

get at least 2GB of RAM and a dedicated video card if you're going to do any type of image editing. most laptops have a built in wifi card these days.

I too bought my first mac this year. 15" MacBook Pro. Awesome. Can't compare with any computers I've ever used. BUT not cheap.

Apple - MacBook - White polycarbonate 13-inch MacBook They start at $999 for a 13"

Yes, that's right, a dedicated video card and more RAM is preferable if you're going to do image editing.

If all you want to do is browse the web and maybe display a few pictures then have a look at a netbook. Way cheaper than a laptop and can do everything you need. Wireless built in to all of them I think.

Not good for image editing or anything else high powered though, not only because netbooks are underpowered but also beacause they have very small screens.

I have a HP entertainment Pavillion laptop, a compaq laptop and a HP desktop unit and I am happy with all three. I run just about every kind of photo software you can buy on all three with no problems.
