Be careful, because they are cutting corners and they give a year warranty here, in the US, which is lower than the half-life of these computers. If you pay a warranty extension, then the price goes through the roof. I'm thinking that Lenovo is better for the PC side. Dell, i got burnt by Dell. Macbooks are still very expensive, plus the software availability . .. On the other hand, there are new machines out there, based on Intel's Atom chip, that are 400us and seem to be able to do a lot of stuff. Where does the current decision stand? Feliz Navidad.

I tried to donate for the laptop but it's in Gernan and I can't figure out what United States is in German or to switch the language. Any help? Thanks Slobodan Stojadinovic Hi Danica,

It’s your fellow Serbian from Florida. I tried to donate for the laptop but it’s in Gernan and I can’t figure out what United States is in German or to switch the language. Any help? Thanks

I too am curious about studying social media in a PhD program (likely in Communication, but possibly Management or Marketing as well). My idea is to raise money to pay for the program itself. I am still conceptualizing it, but am glad to see you are making progress towards your goal! By the way, speaking of social media, I found your blog as a result of a post you made regarding the Mumbai situation on Twitter. Great idea — and, by coincidence, one I had just the other day.
