    Notebook/laptop question

    Ok well im in the market for a new Laptop and I was browsing a few sites.
    I'm not a computer expert so I was wondering if anyone could give me their opinion on the Acer Ferrari 4000.

    The only turn off for me is the look. I'm not saying that it looks bad, but im saying that it looks too good and would be prone to theft. Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on this.

    that's good spec wise but 500-700$ too expensive, especially for an AMD processor.

    I love my Area51m. But its not much of a laptop, more like a really fucking hot small desktop.

    just get a old laptop you can use for internet on the go and as a wordprocessor...otherwise you're just paying a premium for outdated technology.

    psh I got a dell and everyone complains about dells but I love mine! I spent like 1600ish dollars on it though :X better be nice

    also -- my dad gave me a decent idea today that I'm still thinking about. If you write on your laptop,in perma ink, like on the sides of where the mouse thing is "STOLEN FROM SO AND SO" then people might not steal it, because they don't want that shit on their laptop that they might be using on campus or around wherever, and people aren't going to want to buy a stolen laptop..y'know? Just an idea
