Subject: Re: Laptops & EQ


Well I play on a laptop quite a bit, my speed is fine, but the graphics are
white in areas far from where I zone in, or log in at, it is perfect for
travel, cause I know the routes by heart, and questing, and skill raising,
Ive even camped areas quite well, areas that I know VERY well

PS- My laptop is approaching a year old.

That New Inspiron is my next choice also and I am counting the days till I
decide to splurge for it....
