How to improve my reading speed?

garfield_zhou @garfield_zhou (530) • China 2 Nov 08

Robin55 One way to improve your reading speed is to read outloud. Sometimes doing that will make the words stick in your head better and perhaps also make some of the meanings more clear to you. Another thing you could do is to have a friend who speaks English as a...

Robin55 I have a Toshiba Satellite and it works great. It has a 17 inch screen and the sound quality is excellent. It has a CD ROM/DVD burner and is really fast. I don't know what I'd do without it. My guess is that you could probably get one for around $600 or 700....
