[QUOTE="donna723, post: 483293, member: 1883"] I bought a 17" HP laptop about a year ago and I have been very satisfied with it. It didn't come with Word or Excel but I can always add them if I decide I need them. I had Dell before and found their support services a little hard to work with but HP has been great. I got an HP this time around because we had them at work and they were always so reliable. I also bought a small wireless printer/scanner for about the same as I paid for ink for my old printer and you can buy the ink for these at Walmart or any office supply store. One thing I would HIGHLY recommend is to [U]buy[/U] a good antivirus (like Kaspersky) and install it right away and don't rely on a free one that you can download. And don't rely on the temporary short-term version of Norton that comes preloaded in most computers. I've had problems with both. A tech told me that the version of Norton that comes on most computers is very easily corrupted and you can have MAJOR problems. There is a Norton Removal Tool that you can download from the internet, get rid of the Norton, then put in good antivirus software. My sister in law, the computer genius, recommended Kaspersky and it's been super reliable. I have had no problems with it at all. [/QUOTE]
