Hey guys,

The screen on my laptop just went out, so I sent it into Dell. It was the usual tech support process; they sent me the shipping box, and it is on its way. The thing that makes this whole thing interesting is the fact that they asked me to send in the charger with the laptop. Since my dog tripped on my original laptop charger, I ordered an after-market one. Now, I know that Motorola and some other companies say that their warranties are void if you use unauthorized chargers, or otherwise non-Motorola chargers. Is this the case with Dell? I am just wondering because if they are not going to fix the machine, then I can feel justified in buying a new laptop.

Now, question number two: I have been duped by Hp, and maybe Dell, but this does happen with Dell, then where do I turn for a nice laptop under or slightly above $1000?

Thanks,
Tekgek

P.S. I have to write this from a friend's computer that is as slow as Molasses on a January morning (think old AMD Athlon XPs, specifically, the 2500).

thats a good deal, look around on ebay STORES, not regular auctions. also many manufactures offer refurbished products right on their website

Excellent bang for buck laptop. Should perform more ore less as the ASUS G1S-B1 series.

ASUS M51SN-B1 at NCIX

ASUS M51SN-X2 at Newegg

Okay, sorry for the wait, but my old laptop just came back, and it just has a better screen. So, I will hang onto this laptop for a while. I will wait oh, I do not know, maybe a year. Thanks for the suggestions, and I will use the suggestion in the following year. Thanks again.

Thanks,

I happen to love my Athlon (not Athlon XP) processor. Okay, maybe not love, I plan every day on replacing it.

Oh, right, sorry if I offended any of the Athlon Patriots. I liked them at one point as well.
