Thinking of buying a laptop, need sugestions

I have never had or used a laptop computer before because I never needed one before. I have two I-Pads for me and Natasha so don't jump your guns and say that's what I should get. I had mentioned that Natasha's company that she worked for went belly up a few months ago. Anyway, she is just starting ...

I think I made myself perfectly clear on how I feel about Facebook, and it just gets worse IMO.

Sold it all today. Don't have a good feeling about the way Apple is trading. I think I broke even all said and done.

What about tomorrow? 12/12/12 :lol: Oh yea, pending! :lol: The way I see it, it's just another way for Wall Street to screw the little guy. Instill fear, let the stock market drop, then buy it all back at a lower price.

Re: GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 AMD FM2 Motherboard Review

I read that x86 is easier to write code for. Does that make a difference or is that just for graphic cards. I also read that x86 chips are faster, is this true?

Re: GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 AMD FM2 Motherboard Review

Kaos Kid, I agree! To me it looks like Intel is going to do what Apple is doing. That is building everything in house. Intel is late to the game in mobile, once they have the products to sell, it's game over. Question? In mobile chips, how can ARM chips compete with X86 chips? How about that for a h...

Re: Which Drivers?

Use the CD that came with the motherboard and install drivers. Windows 7 should find almost everything you need. Graphic cards are best with the latest drivers, go to their website to download. Don't forget anti-virus and firewall. After you have done that you can go to the vendor that you bought yo...

Re: FAH installer

That's why I hardly fold at home anymore. It's nice to donate but the price is getting a little high for me. I can turn off my PC for most of the day and just use my I-Pad instead.

Re: Buy tech or not?

With the article about Intel that was posted makes me feel very confident that Intel is going to do very well in the future. I also think that Apple is going to have a great holiday season, so I bought 2 more shares. I also bought 1 more share of Google because I think that the Google maps will be m...

Re: Buy tech or not?

Looks like I was correct about Apple. I think it will take some time for Intel, should be a long term buy. IMO. You get paid to wait! At least I'm not losing money. :)

Edit: Just bought another 50 shares of Intel @ 19.38.

I still like intel. p/e ratio is 8.76 Not to mention it's trading at 52 week lows. aapl price/earnings ratio is 11.86 To me t...

I knew if the stocks I choose went down I would get bashed. That is why I bought such a small amount. Will buy more when stocks go down even more. Will let you know what I am doing. I was also looking at verizon and ATT and qualcom. Any thoughts on these stocks? (VZ), (T), (QCOM). Edit: I will wait ...
