From my new laptopMy old (well actually not that old) laptop died this morning. I had a fair go at fixing it but it just didn't want to know (I like desktops, you can get around and have a good rummage inside).
So I jumped on the train, went into town and bought one of these...

Pretty impressed by it so far. I hadn't used Vista before, but it seems to be going alright. Would sooner have stuck to xp for familiarality but still, it is fun to try something new.
Made a fair dent in the steam budget though, I wasn't thinking of buying a new laptop for a while yet.
Nice to be able to surf the net from the livingroom though.

OOh nice one Chris.
Just bought one for the missus a couple of weeks back with much the same specs.
I find Vista a pain.
Can't find anything as they've changed all the icons.
Other than that, it's fine.

look good,
when my screne went weired, i took it to pc world, they did somthing, but what ever they did wasnt good, because it broke the system, so i lost all my files etc.
then we sent it away to some place in baisingstoke where they wanted to charge £370 for just the screne to be fixed, somehow we managed to get it down to £270, but the system was still broken, so we spent ages trying to fix it, eventually we did it, then a while later the system broke again, losing all my files yet again, i just hope it doesnt go wrong again!

My sister had a laptop recently for her birthday and I had to set up the wireless internet connection for it. The screen isn't very good TBH as it is a bit fuzzy (screen resolution probably needs tinkering with) but my first impression of Vista was quite good
