What is a refurbished computer? Are Lenovo computers a good brand to buy?


a refurbished computer is a broke one that the company fixed nd is selling again. Lenovo gets viruses SOOOOOOOOOOOOO seasy! my best friend has one! he hates it! get a mac there is like no viruses for it and its VEEEEEERRRRRRYYYY user friendly!

If I purchase a Dell laptop using my student discount, what free upgrade will I get in October?


You’ll get Windows 7, Extra RAM, a larger hard drive, or a free printer. One of the four.

And next time you try to get this question right for the chance at $1500 in scholarship money via FastWeb, try to be less obvious about it.

Hope this helps.

what is the best laptop to buy for university?

I’m interested in buying a laptop for school, but there are so many to choose from. Are there any suggestions on what type or company is good to buy from?

I strongly recommend that you buy a Mac laptop because its user friendly and doesn’t get many viruses.

What is the best way, if there is one, to buy a used laptop (or possibly a desktop) computer?

I really need to replace an Apple iMac desktop that is almost nine years old. I would like to buy a used Apple laptop, but will also consider a used Apple desktop or even a Windows machine. I know that it’s always best to spend as much as one can afford to get the computer you really want, but I’m wondering if there is any way to get a decent used machine. I welcome all suggestions & answers.

refurbished ( used ) PC’s are a bargain.
I’ve gotten great deals for friends and family at these places.
Get at least a dual core processor.
Spend as much as you can blow away.
You wont be sorry later.

Buying a refurbished laptop? How do you know your getting a good deal?

My in-laws are looking for a refurbished or new laptop for under $400…. they’ve had no luck, so I’ve been asked to look for them.

If it’s refurbished… how do you know it’s not going to crap out on them 2 months down the line? What do I look for in a used laptop?

Thanks.

I don’t know if you know what refurbished is, but the only negative thing about it is that it has a fairly small warranty in place (usually 90 days). This means that you’ll have to purchase an extended warranty, which you’ll probably already purchase if you’re buying a new laptop.

Refurbished merely means that a person bought it, didn’t like color or the size of it, etc, and took it back. Refurbished laptops are then checked once again for any defects and are placed back on the shelves as "refurbished" because they technically can’t be sold as new. I guarantee that a new laptop would crap out far sooner than a refurbished one because it went through manufacturer testing only and was shipped to stores. No other steps were taken to ensure it’s quality, unlike refurbished ones.

Quality? Make sure cosmetically it’s intact. Make sure non of the warranty seals were broken, and run a few boot up tests on it when you first get it to make sure there aren’t any dead pixels, hard drive error, etc. Enjoy it. Basically you’re getting a new computer for half the price.

where can i get a gateway laptop charger for sale?

i mean which stores? or am i better off with a universal charger i jus heard of those. thanx a bunch

I don’t think buying from gateway is a good idea because they are usually way overpriced; however, buying from ebay "can" be dangerous because of the quality issue.

I think this website is pretty good since the price is cheap considering you get life time warranty.

If you can provide me with a model number, I can find a charger for you. The universal ones are usually more expensive.

Where can I get a laptop with cheap monthly payments?

I want to buy a new laptop because I just started online classes for school. I want to get one on credit (financing) so I can have monthly payments. I can’t afford a real high payment so I was looking to find a place where I could do this & have fairly cheap monthly payments. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

google deals ,sometimes a refurbished one is also very cheap

What is the total market size and percentage of Gateway Notebook computers?


try a search engine

are laptop computers cheaper in the usa than they are in israel?

i am planning a trip to israel,i am thinking about buying a good expensive laptop here in the usa and selling it at a good profit in israel.
i was in israel 20 years ago and electronics were expensive there at that time,but now i don’t know and they are difficult to compare.
is there something else i could/should take that would fetch a good profit and help finance my trip?
thanks.

Anyone that says that Hi-tech in Israel is like it was here in the States some 20 years ago doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Israel is a hi tech capitol of the world. Israel has some of the latest cutting edge communications and info technology. It has the second-largest number of startup companies in the world (after the US) and the largest number of NASDAQ-listed companies outside North America.

In 2007, Israel had the 44th-highest gross domestic product (US$232.7 billion) and 22nd-highest gross domestic product per capita (US$33,299 at purchasing power parity).

There are more hi tech companies in Israel than there are in California’s ’silicon valley’.

Intel Israel developed the 8088 processor (the ‘brain’ of the first PC), MMX™ technology, and the latest Intel Centrino Mobile Technology. Intel has over 7000 employees in Israel. They’re also responsible for the first cellular technology as well as what we’re using today.

It is very likely that any Intel processor in the PC you’re using right now was made in Israel, and was definitely developed there.

Any hi tech components or equipment is just as available there as it is here.

You could make a couple of hundred dollars by bringing in an expensive laptop and selling it there, but not if they note it in your passport. Unless you know someone there to sell it to, you would have probably more of a problem selling it as an Israeli would have selling one here.

Any support you’ve shown to Israel, any money you’ve donated towards Israel, would be undone by your bringing in anything to sell on the ‘black market’, which is exactly what you’d be doing.

How do I clean my laptop computer? Its all dusty, and I’d like to clean it a safe way.?

the keyboard, the outside of it everywhere is filthy. how do you clean it?

There is this spray thing you can buy at walmart or any computer store that will blow the dust away..It’s this aerosol canister. It gets cold when you spray it. and it wont harm your computer.
