As some of my other posts suggest I am looking to get an AW M15x and I have an old AW notebook that I could get around $250 for as well as another $200 becoming around $450 bucks or so off my order price. I was wondering if anyone has used this trade in thing and what you think of it...good or bad. As well when I put everything in the cart and did s&h and tax why am I charged Colorado tax if I bought it from a company in FL... I can't remember if I paid tax last time.
Also does these systems whip with 64 bit OS or 32?
These are my specs...what do you think? What would you add or change? I will get more RAM from Cruel for $89 for 4 gigs, way better than another $350
