I'm thinking about getting a laptop, lord knows I could use it. Here are the things I think I want/need in one:
- Light and portable, something like 10" to 13" would be ideal
- Windows XP
- Wifi and 3G ready, whatever it takes to connect to the web at hotels and coffee shops
- Cellular internet ready, internal or have a slot for a phone card-thingee, whatever it takes to connect to the web through ATT/Version/Sprint when there is no kind of wifi or connection available.
- Powerful enough to run Office, Front Page, FTP, and Image Composer, IE and e-mail.
What I would also like but these are more optional:
- DVD burner (esp. a slot type with no tray
)
- 2GB RAM
- 40GB or more hard drive/flash memory
I'm open to ideas, suggestions, and especially information from people who are up to date on the latest tech... thanks
