omputer speakers. They have the 1/8" jack on them. Plug in, turn on, tunes! :) That's what I did for the kitchen.

That's what I've got in my "office"! Though eventually I plan to buy something nicer. Or rather, buy something nicer for the bedroom, adn bring the off-brand iHome thing into the office, so I can have radio AND itunes.

The status is NOT quo.

Heaven forbid I try to sync ND's library with mine.

I'm gonna need a bigger boat hard drive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, if a person were in the market for a new laptop, would CNET reviews be a good place to start looking? Or is there somewhere else? I'm looking for cheapish but not crappy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

you can start there, but I find their reviews to be somewhat inadequate and usually out of date for my purposes. you might start reading and then ask here for opinions, etc.

I like Dell and Dell has decent deals on refurbished laptops.

I know others here like Sony.

Cool, thanks. I like that CNET compares them to one another, because I don't really know what I'm looking for.
