    Looking for new laptop ($700-$1000)

    Hey everyone, So my former laptop has recently become too much to repair, and after 4 years of constant headache and maintenance, I'm looking to replace it. It's a Lenovo 14" Y-series, which had great specs for my needs, but my interests since I got it have changed, so I might not be looking...

    Laptop for College bound kid $900-$1100

    If you really want the SSD, I would check the Lenovo website regularly, and wait a few weeks. The way Lenovo's website works is strange; they have these "weekly" deals that generally drop the price down to a manageable range. A week or two ago, the Y400 w/ 16GB SSD was $829 or something (in the...

    Laptop for College bound kid $900-$1100

    I'm having the same question (actually, its more of - my parents decided to get me a laptop for college, and I pretty much get to choose, since I know more about computers than either of them) and I've been considering the Lenovo Y400, especially considering the Lenovo Y-Series just got upgraded...

    Stephen Hawking Says The World Will End

    Not exactly that the world is going to end, but that we're going to use up all of our resources and bleed the planet dry. Not too obscure to think about, considering the rate at which humanity has consumed resources over the past few hundred years.

    Games you play that you never get "sick" of?

    Fallout 3 (and to lesser extent Skyrim and Oblivion). Must say, not as big a fan of F:NV; I can get bored from it after a while. KotOR (first proper RPG I ever played) I wish I could say I could never get sick of TF2, but since the online community degenerated, I've found it more and more...

    Need Help$500 Gaming Laptop

    It seems like getting a smaller screen size (say, 14") would cut costs and be more efficient. 17" is pretty large.

    Cocaine Helps 4th Grader Win Science Fair

    I managed to win the science fair in physics with incorrect equations....I guess judges find special relativity light-years better (no pun intended) than everyone else's paper airplanes. And no, my parent's didn't help me...they didn't understand it.

    Sorry if this is being posted in the wrong section, I'm not sure where it should go. Anyway, I'm trying to boot Ubuntu Studio from my WD MyBook External HDD. I downloaded the file, burned the image to a DVD, booted from the DVD, and installed it to the HD. Made a Linux-only partition and...

    Laptop For College

    Then, between the X-220t and the HP 2760p, which one would be better? EDIT: I found where the docking stations are, so its an extra $200 for a docking station (that will be wanted).

    Laptop For College

    The first thing on the list is that it -has- to be a convertible tablet. The my question about 4gigs of RAM and the stock CPU is, will it stay able to run most programs for the next 4-5 years? I don't want it to become obsolete. If she doesn't need the extra processing/RAM, should I just...

    Laptop For College

    This is actually for my sister, she's going off to college in the fall, and has a $1,500 budget for a laptop. She really wants a convertible tablet, much like the Lenovo ThinkPads, so that she can take notes longhand with a stylus, but be using Windows 7, not some mobile OS. She is going...
