1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future? No, I don't own an SSD, am planning on buying one in the next year. 2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you...

Darn, so I should hang onto it. My sis is looking for a great bang for the buck laptop for $750 or under final cost. I was trying to find a dell xps 16 or maybe a loaded studio 17 with the good LED 1920x1200 screen, but haven't found any...

If I can sell my Gateway P-7805U to my sister, what would you replace it with? I am a gamer and don't want to spend a ton. Is the P-7805 the best budget gamer laptop out there? I got the 1920x1080 screen on mine. I looked at alienware...

nobody has had any complaints of response time that I have read..anywhere.....
