I just bought a new latop

And yeah, it's pretty sweet. It's a Dell Inspiron Mini 9. I love it. It's literally 9 inches. The compactness of it is great. I already have a large IBM Thinkpad, so I wanted something smaller. I love it, and thanks to my new gig, I got a discount on it!

Dude, you got a Dell!

You'll soon be on a first-name basis with tech geeks in India!

I'd love to hear that conversation, lol.

You and I, both. The tech guys in India will be deaf mutes when Term gets through with them.

Oooh very nice! Enjoy!

Very nice...! The very best things come in small packages

Damn, and i thought my new to me two year old Dell latitude was cool.

Now I'm gonna go cry in the corner for a while.

OHHH youre talking about the laptop!

**MacLean** · 09-24-08, 03:43 PM

I love my Dell laptop. Tax return early this year bought two of them, one for me and one for the wife.

No more fights over the computer.

Plus, Dell makes a smoking hot laptop. It runs circles around my old desktop.

Enjoy the new purchase Term!

I have a Dell laptop too (Latitude D600 1.2GHz). I actually bought it used for $250 at PropertyRoom.com, and the only upgrade I had to make was to add 1GB of memory - the 256MB of memory made it dog slow.

I only have one complaint with it. The hard drive seems to be a lot slower than my desktop's hard drive, but I could probably upgrade that too, plus put 2GB in it and it'd be fine.

It's a throw-away at this point, so screw the Indian customer service - It'd probably wear me out trying to understand every third word, because it sure wears me out at work

Sweet.............Dells are nice, I have a 17" Dell Inspiron. But I just purchased a new Gateway desktop with a 24" wide screen monitor to play my game, (America's Army) online game. Of course I had to add memory and just added a sweet video card, which in turn I had to purchase a more powerful power supply............

That's my next purchase. I have a new XPS M1330 now that's loaded with options, but I want one for my patrol bag.

I can get a 16GB SSD XP model with BT and 2GB of RAM + the bigger cam for $400 shipped. What did you end up paying Brad?

My only plans for it are a DC adapter for my patrol car and a nice sleeve. It will permanently live in my patrol bag and tether to my BB for intarwebs and movies on OT gigs.

In case you'd like to pimp it up to match Lazy Fed's dashboard, here's some ideas

**Jennbeth72** · 10-02-08, 05:31 AM
