RE: [mfg-smartcam] OT: Laptop recommendation?

[Michael Senack]

Best wishes, for your daughter’s endeavors at college. For me there is only one source for purchasing family PC’s and that is Dell. I’ve purchased my first two systems over the phone and my third one was an online purchase. The tech support has always been extremely good. I know I can purchase cheaper systems from the big box stores in the area but service is too slow and online tech is questionable.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 8:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [mfg-smartcam] OT: Laptop recommendation?   Hi all,   My daughter just started her first year of college. We're proud of her of course, but now she is tying up the family PC  <frown>. Any recommendations for an affordable laptop that has performed well for you? Looking for something that will suit a typical student's needs; word processor, spreadsheet, cd burner, modem to go online, etc. Also don't want it to be too heavy because she is on the petite side.
