    NP Shell. Thanks for all the help. Hehe I am still a bit confused though. You are the one that told me to take a look at the zx5000 series and I liked it a lot. Now I need to rethink again because you are saying M now. Don't take this the wrong way. I just thought it was funny.

    Hey thanks ShellGuy! I feel a little better about the choice. Yeah I'm not in a situation right now to dump a bunch of money on a better one. I just don't want to feel like I wasted my money if I get the one I was talking about. I would also hate it if there was a better HP or Compaq option and...
