New Laptop :D
alright, so I was looking for a new laptop for college, and I just happen to come across this Yahoo! article about great laptops for around $500. One in the lineup was the Gateway NV5929u. Once I saw the name "Gateway" I was immediately turned off. However, I kept reading about it and the article said this laptop was one of the most powerful in the lineup. Another good thing about it is that this laptop was MISLABELED from the factory when A LOT of them shipped. The price of this laptop: $599.99 on NewEgg. When they shipped, they were labeled as the Gateway 5927u, which is a slower, less powerful model. The result? A good laptop for the cheaper price 
Specs (only complaint I have is the GPU, but this laptop has good reviews, and the price range my mom would pay for was like $650 MAX)
It's also got 4 USB 2.0 ports, 1 VGA out, 1 HDMI out, headphone and microphone ports, 5-in-1 card reader, and a webcam. So I think it's a pretty good buy, and she already ordered it today. should be here monday
