Title: Anybody know anything about notebook computers?
Post by: Suga Foot on September 28, 2006, 01:23:20 PM

I'm getting a notebook computer in a few weeks, I'm not sure whats good and whats bad.  I need it for regular internet use (can you get a built in wi-fi modem thing?)  and for running photoshop & simply accounting.  I wanna get a widescreen too. 

I've been looking at dell, but I'm not sure, I also found a nice HP at best buy. 

Anyone have any suggestions on what might be a good one?

you can get built in wi-fi network card. but you'll also need a wireless network router to handle the broadband connection
