NEVER EVER GET A COMPAQ! I have had this stupid thing since October and have had problem after problem after problem...
I have replaced the HDD three times, the mother board once, the keyboard once, and the battery... It is still acting up ocasionally.
I want a Dell Insprion 1505 (The 1705 screen is 17" and weighs 8lbs, to big for me as I am mobile alot), or an IBM Lenovo Thinkpad T or Z series. My only problem, the ones I configure online cost $2000-$3000 and I dont have that much right now.
