Harry and Judith, hanks for the advice. Tiger direct will custom make one
with XP, but THEN A GOOGLE SHOWED some posts with some complaints, but you
can find complaints about anything.
Also, HP will custom configure one with XP, but I only saw a 15" screen. I
will try Dell next.
I WILL APPRECIATE HEARING MORE ABOUT JUST EXACTLY WHAT THE ACTUAL PROBLEMS
WITH VISTA ARE. Ron D

Subject: [amibroker] Re: OT; Acer or Toshiba Notebook?
Check on what video chipset the laptop has...
That will determine how well the 22" monitior will work.
2 Gigs is plenty... go for faster CPU; AMD will be less expensive
and works better (IMHO)...
Good luck getting XP... Vista was my only choice and I fought with
it for 6 months before "downgrading" to XP... not easy since my
Toshiba is geared toward Vista; had to find drivers.
