Laptop…check

After a lot of going back and forth, I’ve finally purchased an HP dv5040us laptop. It’s has way more hp’s than I need with a 2.2GHz AMD Turion 64 processor and 2048MB's of RAM and I got a screaming deal on it at Ubid because it was refurbished by the manufacturer. What made my decision a bit difficult is that it has a 15.4” screen so it weighs 6.6lbs, 1.5lbs more than the lower performance IBM that I was also considering. In the end, I decided that trading a little size & weight for a lot of performance will be worth it in the long run.
