So here’s what I got:

HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx

I would have loved a MAC, but look at the comparison with a refurbished Macbook:

@$1000 Macbook: 13″ Screen; 120 GB Hardrive; 1 GB RAM + I’d have to buy the MAC edition of Office

@$720 HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx:  15″ Screen; 320 GB Hardrive; 4 GB RAM

In sum: I went with a 2-3x more powerful machine for $300 cheaper!

If I had the money I would have went with a MAC, but hey, I’m a poor college student.

    You sacrifice quality with a PC, though it looks to be a deal it rarely is. As far as Office is concerned- I use Open Office for free. It is legal and no $$ needs to be sent to Microsoft. It is good software.

    I have determined that I will never buy another PC! Mac is my choice- even if I have to save and use the library’s computers while I wait.
