I bought A New laptop a few weeks ago, I had enough with my old $800 Celeron, Too much too slow and I am glad to see it now delegated a new life in the lounge room.
With a $915 dollar tax rebate coming my way thanks to a stimulus package I decided to spend big and went with a $1800 HP that I bought from JB-HiFi. An I did get suckered in for extra 2 years insurance.
