Dell Inspiron 6000. Reasonably priced, large screen (15.4" Wide screen). I got the DVD recorder (stick to DVD+R - I have a bunch of memorex DVD-Rs I can't use) and wireless mini-PCI (I had a choice and took the ipw2200 since I knew it worked). -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
