Just out of curiosity, what laptop are you getting?

[Junkie556]

Probably an HP around 400-500 bucks, might buy Norton or just use free security

Something like this, and why not norton?

It's just bad. You'd be better getting nod32, Kaspersky (I have Kaspersky) or Trend Micro.

If you plan on gaming, go for the dv4t listed there, with at least the HD6470M graphics card.
Most of the CPUs there should be good for gaming as well, with the exception of the old Pentium. Try get at least an i3 if possible.
But great choice of brand, not dell :)

Nah the only thing I'd play is like minecraft and this :p

Chrome also automatically lets you save passwords and security and try Norton it lets you scan all files you download and all seperate files its really really good!

i just dont understand some people

norton and good do NOT go together in a sentence, unless it's norton is not good

Well that is still gaming. Good luck playing Minecraft and Blockland on the other computers. The graphics cards suck. Like I said, get the DV4T.

So what do you use?

Alienware M11x, might be a little out of the price range though. Microsoft Security Essentials and Google.

Please don't recommend stuffty laptops. Alienware are overpriced, use stuffty hardware and will turn into an expensive paperweight in a few months. The only thing they sell on is the false illusion that it's great because of the spunky case design and the words they use to describe them.
