I bought a Toshiba HD satellite P205-S8810. It has a 17 inch flat LCD screen (lovely btw), HD dvd-rom/DVD super multi drive (burns cd's and dvd's), has WIFI, and includes a wireless card, so now I don't have to plug in my stupid internet cable thingy. It has a built in webcam and mic, comes with Windows Vista which I like a heck of a lot better than XP, has tons of usb plug in spots, a slot to put my camera card to upload pics, it's fairly light weight, and get this...You can watch and RECORD, even pause live TV on this!!! How awesome is that. You can even watch Animal Planet, Discovery Channel etc. through the satellite. It's so awesome. Plus Norton and mcafee were preinstalled, as well as a lot of other cool things. And the games included are so fun...go Bejeweled! LOL. It's super easy to use, and I love the number pad which my old laptop didn't have. The speakers are fairly decent as well. I'm totally sold on it.
