  • What do you think of this laptop deal?

    So I'm thinking of getting a new personal laptop. The only modern laptop I have right now is the SpeedCircuit laptop, which I really only use for tuning. I'd like to have one for personal use, and I'm partial to IBM/Lenovos.

    There's a sale going on right now that I was thinking of taking advantage of. What do you think?

      Definitely go with 64bit over 32bit. The driver support is there, and there aren't any real downsides anymore. XP 64bit apparently sucks, but I've used Vista and Win7 64bit with no issues.
      Seems like a pretty solid computer.

        with that little memory, no real reason to go 64 bit.
