    i don't recommend dell computers, it has alot of problems. I recommend either a Toshiba, HP, Sony, or other computers. As for the PDA, try to get a blueberry.

    Everything added costing about $6000 AUD which in today's currency exchange is about 5.7k USD- after i added a second HDD, and speed up the intel chip and added physics accelerator etc.

    It is so freaking huge and heavy- and the battery charger is like 3 times the size of my previous one.

    The battery life is so short on standard setting, and i pretty much recharged it a lot.

    But the graphic and sound system is cool, and the speed is pretty good.

    I certainly would hardly recommend this to anyone who is not playing lots of games- in fact, if not for the fact that i move a lot, i would recommend ppl to get desktops- cheaper for equivalent performance.

    I could've fixed your old laptop and you treat me to lunch instead.

    But man that laptop is quite expensive, I guess Dr.Han's got the fat wallet.

    TOSHIBA isn't that great. Mine breaks down easily, and I paid $4000 for it. Including a 3-year insurance of course.
    Sometimes it's hard to love someone because you're so afraid of losing them.

    For good Laptops I suggest ASUS, Acer and MSI, Lenovo and HP are not so bad. Don't get Sony, Toshiba or Fujisu, they sucks, especially Toshiba.
    For good PDA or PDA phones, I suggest ASUS, HTC or Dopood , O2 and Dell are not so good.
    Finally, no LG, they are the worse.
