Am considering this laptop for my wife's birthday in a couple weeks. Best
Buy has it on sale for $999. I'll add another gig of RAM and router.

Thoughts?
Depending on what she'll use if for it may be over-kill.


Yeahbut, she likes it. We skipped the extra gig of RAM. Seems it has only
two slots, one with two gigs, the other with one gig. In order to upgrade
to 4 gigs, I'd have to trash one gig and buy two. Hell with it. We'll see
how it works with only three.

Unless it's the 64-bit version of Vista, Windows can't use more than 3 gigs of ram.

It's the 32-bit. Surprisingly, no one at Best Buy mentioned that.
