Ok 1 more question, would there be a disadvantage to the Celeron?

Hows Toshiba? ( as you said most are 2nd labeled anyway )

Hard to beat this price :  Toshiba Notebook

the celeron doesn't carry as good of graphics as the pentium 4 does..

Thanx everybody!  And Mr. B I allways thought that little gitar smilely kinda looked like you.  

Yep, I Rock. lol.

Kerb is right on that one. XP Pro is a hell of alot more stable than home edition. Im running home edition now and I hate it.

Sorry for raising the dead but damn prices have dropped since then! You got ripped off! lol Should have waited about 7 years. Then you might have something.

FWIW I've had 5 Dell Referbs over the years, and not a one of them has given me any sort of issue at all. Good fast computers, pre-disastered. Good Stuff.

hmm.... old post awakes....

 

[Laylas_Mom]

LMAO I just bought basically the same laptop as this post for $499 yesterday...and I got it in purple. LOL

If you need a new computer now is the time to buy...

 

[Kento-Moto]

I forgot about this subject all together, where do U people find these old stuff & why? ???

Anyway, the Toshiba Satalite I bought was CRAP even thought consumer reports and other sources at the time said otherwise. From the very begining it used to lock up on me and the screen would show the Toshiba Graphic there was nothing I could do to turn it on til the next day, had to wait til midnight or 12-24 hrs. Used to happen about once a month. I sent it back or had it worked on about 5 times. I still have it but hardly use it. I now have 2 HP and they are awesome! ( both Desk top and a lap top. )
