Sitting all day may be wrecking your health. Are you going to stand for that?
Full StoryMy old laptop finally died and I am trying to decide between the Dell Latitude and the XPS. I don't use the laptop for anything fancy, but I would like to get one that won't be obsolete in 3-5 years. The only game I play online is bridge. And I spend a lot of time at Gardenweb.
The XPS and Latitude both price out at a bit over $1,000. I want the Vista OS, a video card that is not integrated, 2GB of memory, a pentium core 2 processor and I want it to be sturdy. The processor on the Latitude is a little bit faster (Intel® Core 2 Duo T7250 (2.00GHz) 2M L2 Cache, 800MHz Dual Core) as opposed to T5400 on the XPS. The monitors would be the same size (15.4") and both with 1280 x 800 resolution.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I never bought any other computer but Dell (5 of them), and I have always been satisfied with the product (I still have the first Dell Tower I bought in 1993 and it's in storage now but it still works).
