I just don't want any freezing up or lagging. My daughter has an HP and likes it really well, but this will be my first laptop, so I want to make the right decision. It will be a loooong while before I can afford another one.

None of my business, but... maybe you need to lie down for a bit in the afternoons.

HP DV4 2170 $749.00 at Staples but if you watch their sales I bought one for $649.00.
Compact and fast. I like it!

The only thing that has kept me back from apple is their waaaaay disproportionate pricing. Basically they are charging you 1000 for their OS, because these days the line between mac hardware and pc hardware is very thin.

Actually, for a notebook: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Compaq+-...ract_desc=null

I bought one of these back in January when my gateway notebook (that I paid $1600 for 4 years ago) died and went to hell.

$329.00

I am not a gamer, but it would run stuff like the sims no problem. I run Adobe CS4 on it with no problem, plenty fast, InDesign and Photoshop are both pretty intense applications. Internet on it is fast (wireless-N, dvd payback and straming video on it is flawless.

No complaints at all on it. I have even grown to like Windows 7
