I'm stumped. Someone tell me where I should buy a laptop

[Shy]

Since this next year I've decided (wisely, I think) that my big desktop PC is a total waste of $$$ (I paid $300 for a GF2 when it came out and used it... to play Playstation games on my PC since it looked better than my 13" tv).

I wanna sell my PC and spend the extra cash from this summer on a laptop.

But I'm too stupid to find a place to buy one. I don't care for anything fancy, just something that will print my papers and get on the internet.

And I don't want a Dell. They flat out refuse to sell me a computer with no OS. And I wanted a Micron, but since they went under all you can get is a poorly priced refurb from them.

So where should I go? When it comes to laptops, I'm clueless. I just want a decent machine with no OS installed.

Try a local computer store, they will build computers to post, so there is nothing you dont want on it.

hmm with no OS installed? Why does it matter you can always format and install a new one

 

[Platypus]

Because you have to pay for the OS...

Exactly. I own so many unused Windows licenses, it's not even funny.

Plus, who doesn't want a Linux laptop?
