| | I've come to the point where I need to get a new computer. Because I travel a lot, I'd prefer to get a notebook/laptop, although my budget's kinda restricted at the moment so I might downgrade to a PC.
Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions on where I'd be able to get the best deal?
I live in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. I'm willing to travel to Kitchener or Toronto to pick up the computer, but I'd prefer to have it mailed if possible.
I'd also need a pretty decent warrenty. I seem to generate a destructive force around me that causes anything I care about to become the target of gremlins and such. LOL
Use would be primarily schoolwork/writing, although I want to start getting into media development (Creating Videos/AMVs, image manipulation, etc). I don't mind waiting for things to load, although I also multitask a lot, so I'll be needing a lot of memory anyway.
I know exceptionally little about hardware, so any help in comparing parts would also be greatly appriciated! |

I am not too sure where in Canada you are living and it is so far away from where I live, at the other end so I can't suggest places where you could purchase such a system. For your requirements, school/writing, you would not require such a high end system. As you multitask, you might want to get a 2 gb RAM, I myself is still using on PC 512 mb RAM, but you should get as high as possible. Maybe you could also get a good graphics card, since you are going to video editing. Something along the lines of having higher than 128 MB should be more than sufficient to have a pretty good system

Although you might have not done this but I take a crack at it. Google these words: "computer stores in canada" and search away.

Better yet, go to www.notebookreview.com, then click on forums, and ask that same question. There are a lot of notebook experts over there that can advice you when you post something like this. If you are not sure of what notebook to get they can help you out picking one depending on your needs. That forum has helped me a lot, I hope it works for you.

What Are Nosebleeds
and how to deal with them (3) Nosebleeds, as the name suggests, is the expulsion of blood from the nostrils. They are divided into
two types depending on the source of bleeding - anterior (front of nose) or posterior (back of
nose). Anterior nosebleeds usually come from tiny blood vessels at the very front part of the nose
(septum) and are easy to stop. Posterior nosebleeds usually come from an artery in the back part of
the nose and are much less common than anterior nosebleeds. They tend to occur more often in elderly
people. Those nosebleeds are harder and more complicated to stop, and usually re....

Rightly Deal With Rejection
rejection is the root cause of many crimes (1) A sense of rejection is the root cause of many crimes, says a study conducted by a NGO. Sometime
ago, a school boy who got scolding from his teachers for not doing his home work, thought he was
being rejected. The next day he stole his father’s revolver, went to the school and shot down some
teachers and a couple of his classmates. And finally he shot himself. It was not rejection, but just
a feeling of rejection and it caused such a calamity. Some of us must be feeling right now that
we are no longer wanted in our family, in our workplace, or in the society. We may....
Boredom

“you can find something to do.” “whatever,” I would say and just walk away. “there’s nothing to do…”
this is also a phrase we hear too often. What is true about that? There is so much to do! I
think we really mean we’re too lazy to actually do anything. There really is so much to do, I’m not
even going to name anything because that list could go on and on. And even if you d....

My Notebook Takes Ages To Start Up
(4) The notebook at my office takes at least 20 minutes to start up after I log in! There will be a
box that says 'Running startup script' before my desktop loads. Why is this so? I'm
not the only one in the office with this problem though, so I thought it might be due to age or
something, but even my PC at home which I've used for some 3 years doesn't take half as
long. Since it's the office computer, people don't download things to it often, so it
can't be a virus. Anyway, it's a Dell Latitude D610 and runs on Windows XP. ....

was like 4-6 strokes maybe? Anyway, she has no feeling in her lower jaw, muscles in the tongue, lips

Health Care In Canada Bleeding Us Dry.
health care with extremely high tax rates. (6) Hi I live in Canada and we have one of the best health care systems in the world. Yes I can go to a

non essential medical things are not covered. For example a guy got a pace maker implant and after a
while it broke though the skin and was hanging half way out. Well he wanted this fixed but because
it was classified as non essential they wanted a poor old retired man to pay $40,000 to fix it.
Now there is a good side in that if something bad happens to use we will be t....
