I've done some thinking, and I decided that I am
1.) Going to buy a new computer - it's time for an upgrade and the repairs on the exisiting one keeps dinging us.
2.) Going to go with a PC again (Macs are just too pricey for my budget right now)
3.) Going to go with a Laptop for portability mostly.
I just wnat a computer that will let me enjoy all that the internet has to offer (movies, downloads, speed) and that will let me burn CD's, upload using my usb cable, and let me unput usihng my SD card. 99% of my computer usage is internet, iTunes, Hulu.com.
I don't have the extra cash, so I want to get a "no interest" deal from a seller.
Best Buy has a 18 month no interest offer going on right now, and I found two computers that I thought might work for me.
Which one do you think is the better deal?
Do you think the Gateway model is worth the $100 more?
Is a larger screen that much more desirable?
If I am using my computer almost always at home - does the battery life mean so much? (gateway model doesn't have such good battery life)
etc,
It seems as though BEST BUY won't let me post the pages of the computers - I tried everything but just get "page not found" when I try to link. Here are the CNET reviews of each computer
Toshiba Satellite L505-Es5018
Gateway NV7915U
Any guidance greatly appreciated.
It's silly how much this is stressing me out.
