Am considering this laptop for my wife's birthday in a couple weeks.

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.

Even if you put 4G in it, Vista Premium 32 bit can only use a little over
3.1 of it. Deferring it was a wise move.
