..OMG! thats so sick it makes other things that are sick look less sick..

i recommend a desktop.. you will get alot better value for money buying a desktop rather then a laptop. (unless ya really need the laptop)

yeah.

Austin's have a machine for $490 which is pretty good, basic, but good for what you intend to use it for, then u can just use ur current screen, keyboard and mouse.

PS: I am keen to take ur old PC off ur hands if its no good to you anymore... I can use it for parts

If you would like more info re: this PC, PM me.

yeah def want the laptop.

yeah once ive taken off all my files off the computer ill prolly format the whole system and get rid of it, can post of the specs tonight for ya if u want, just had a new grahics card installed too.

i will be planning on hooking an external mouse keyboard and 22" lcd widescreen to the laptop too.

anyone help me with a lappy??

Why get a laptop and turn it into a desktop ????/

good idea, I would say talk to ppl at Austin's, PLE etc.. or even our mate, Rusty Gates at Arrow. Would be your cheapest place to start looking I would think.

Basically, you want dual core 2 duo 1gig ram at least, I would rather not having Vista, as its shit and a DVD burner. Thats about all u want from a laptop.

Things like built in wireless are handy too, and bluetooth, and card readers... but depends if your planning on using those things. Wireless is a must tho, coz u never know where u can get "free" internet from... ie: most carparks in Joondalup.

this is not achievable with a $900 dollar budget
