Im starting school next year and going into a Computer Science program. I do some light Photoshopping with various things, designing my xanga/myspace/livejournal layouts. I want to load my copy of Warcraft III onto it too. I'd like something cost effective, and I dont really want to spend more than 1500, if that much.

Any suggestions on specific notebooks, what components I should concentrate on, or brands I should stick with would be greatly appretiated!!

Im not too clueless as to this stuff, but I trust someone here knows of some crazy website where they sell top line notebooks for a dollar and a half.

well, they do seem good with replacing things.

at least, last time i dealt with them. but that was just a CD drive...

but i suppose, you have to take risks somewhere.

and if you're going to take a risk that the laptop will fail, then i'd rather take it with a dell, who i've had experience with.

and as far as toshiba... i have a 7 year old toshiba that still works. of course, it's on windows 95, and nothing works with it, but it still works.
