So I'm thinking about purchasing an IBM R series laptop. I'll post the link below with the model that I'm thinking about.
IBM R Series - Value for $1,215
I'll be adding Microsoft Office and 256MB RAM upgrade. I'd like to end up spending around $1500 for the laptop and at least the Microsoft Office. As far as what I'll be doing with the laptop: assignments for school, general Internet (WiFi, messaging, stock research), and some occasional web site design. I don't play any games. I really want something that will last me for three years or so and not give me a lot of problems. The 14.1in screen is bigger than my current size of 13.3, but it's still small and in a compact form. Is this a good deal for the money or would I be better off waiting and seeing what else comes out?
Thanks
