BOB47 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Posted May 30, 2007 When I read that you got a new lapper I thought maybe you went to the local strip club. Quote

Krambo Posted May 30, 2007 Report Posted May 30, 2007 Isn't the establishment "Cheerleaders" near your area? On a serious note, my brother's new (less that 6 months old) Dell XP laptop ($2700) hard drive crashed and cannot be restored. It is cheaper to buy a new laptop than have a new HD put in it along with an OS. Just out of warranty as well. Quote
Hankg42 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Posted May 30, 2007 Recently, Dell had actually gone back to selling PCs with WinXP on them. There were a lot of customer complaints because not a lot of programs are Vista compatible yet. Maybe they are still selling laptops with XP. Have a look at their site. I've been using Dell PCs for a long time, and have no real complaints on the hardware. Quote
SSThunder Posted May 30, 2007 Report Posted May 30, 2007 I guess if you really wanted XP you could go buy it some where. I've had my Toshiba laptop for almost 2 years. I got the extened warranty because I use it a lot. Quote

You are seeing no options for xp because you are looking on the home side of things, look in the buisness side of either dells or toshibas web site and you will find many laptops with a xp pro choice. Vista whi.le nice looking is just a complete resource hog and is having all kinds of trouble right now with compatibility issues. Quote
