What kind of laptop will I need?

i use a nec versa something lol and i think it would just do fine if you're only using it like the way you mentioned above

The laptop that I have been using for more than six years is still in good condition after some updating.As it is old, I do not use it to play games, but do some news reading, check emails and mylot and pickjack for fun. If I were to get another one, I would still try to get the same brand, but now IBM computer seems to be replaced with the brand Lenovo, because Lenovo group has bought the brand name of IBM laptop and desktop. Lenovo is very good. So I think that I will turn to Lenovo later on. . Thank you, cream.

i have a toshiba, it has intel centrino(inside), windows vista, and satellite(what ever that is) but if you prefer you could go into places like bestbuy or circut city and they have trained personnel that will help you make a decision, thats what i did and my laptopis wonderful..
