Hi Mitch,
Finally settled tentatively on a 17.3 HP laptop that meets all the
requirements for smooth operation of FlightsimX:
"HP Pavilion dv7t Quad Edition 17.3" Laptop - 2nd generation Intel Quad
Core i7-2670QM (2.2 GHz) / 1GB GDDR5 Radeon Graphics / 8GB DDR3 System
Memory / 750GB 5400RPM Hard Drive / Blu-ray player & SuperMulti DVD
burner / Beats Audio / 2 USB 3.0"
Couldn't find any complaints about it on the web other than the camera
images being of questionable quality and a complaint about the sound
system from an audio pro who liked the computer otherwise. There were
several kudos, though.
HP says this is a discontinued item, but Amazon and several others seem
to have several in stock.
First looked at a slightly less powerful laptop with a touch-screen.
Still haven't figured out what the advantages of having a touch-screen
would be.
Have you or anyone had or heard of good or bad experiences with used
laptops from Amazon? New ones from Amazon are $1300; used are $900.
Gerry
