i have a laptop and i don't really love it all of the time because there are some things on my laptop that i wished were better honestly...i mean like sometimes it slows down for a few minutes and then it will speed up again and i wish that i had more ram on my computer and a lot of things like a dvd burner, just things like that and i know that i shouldn't complain because it gets what i need done honestly, and i should be and am thankful for the things that my computer does do, so i was just wondering about you all, do you like your computer and if you do what do you like about it and if you don't what would you like to change about it? please tell us all maybe we will agree! thanks for taking the time out of your day to read my discussion and i hope that you will answer, i hope that you all have a great day and great night!

I hate my computer so much. It has a very old video card so many things on the computer I can't even do. I am going to have to get a new one eventually otherwise technology and programs are going to get to good for this old piece of junk

I have a brand new Mac, well actually a refurb that Apple gave to me when my almost 3 year old ibook could not be fixed. I loved my iBook and this MacBook is even better.
It has everything I want on it. Can't ask for much more.

I love my desktop PC and I love my laptop. I bought them, upgraded them with my own money so I love them so much. I actually made some surveys and researched before I actually boought them. So I didn't feel regret when I got them. I know that there are some lack of features, but I can handle it with upgrades. All my computers are customized for me :)

I actually Love the computer I am on, it's a Dell XPS M140 laptop, it was a gift from my fiancee (2 ee's?) for valentines day, now... The laptop I recently purchased is a Tablet, Dell also, I hate that friggin' thing... It cost a small fortune actually, almost 3,500 bucks... what a waste!
I have a few other desktops I mostly rebuild, I also have an older dell which does actually run my home Network.
Maybe I hate the New Laptop/Tablet because it has Vista.. not sure but the RPM on the drive is slow also, has to have an external DVD drive... just not happy, my 2 year old uses it maily for Disney games... that's bad!

I have a dell computer and love it.
It's fast and I never had any problems with it.
I dont have a laptop but would like to buy one someday when I get enough money saved up for one.

I am also using a laptop and I love it. It's actually kind of new since I just got it last April as a replacement for my old one. Both are from Apple. I love their laptops. I think laptops should really suit your needs. So far, my laptop hasn't slowed down on me or anything. It's still as fast as ever, memory is good, superdrive is good, dvd player is good, over-all performance is great. Although I admit I really need a time machine for this for backup. Better be safe than sorry.

I have a laptop and just love it. It is my first laptop, so I just love the idea that I can pick up and go and still be able to surf the web. I am happy that I have it, I will probably be taking it to school every day. 2 days of the week I have like 4 hours of down time. I should use this time to study. But if not I also have an option of being on the internet too.

Good day. I love my laptop, it help me do the things I needed doing in my work. I had it as a bonus, bought it pre-used from a german businessman. It was well taken care off and a bargain for it's price. With limited budget, we can't always buy the best but we can modify and make our computer adoptive in time. I wish you can save enough and buy a laptop of your own.

I love my laptop! Of cause there's time i hate because of the speed and those virus thing that keep irritate me. Why do i say i love my laptop? It is because this is my very very first computer in my life.

Dear friend,
I do like my computer and more than that I like my laptop which is really a nice once for it is Compaq presario and it is also so nice and also its really useful for me in many ways. I do love the computer that I use rarely at home, which is mostly used by my sister. But I do all my own computer works on my laptop and I like to do in it more than the desk computer.

Our desktop computer is okay, even though it was kinda old, but it was upgraded and all of it's software were already updated. It was fast and functioned quite properly, so, to answer the question if I like it? Yes, I do like it and quite satisfied with it's performance. However, I can't help but wished that I have my own computer. So that I wouldn't share it with family and work more longer and got more privacy. But while I don't have yet a computer of my own, I am quite satisfied to used our desktop PC.

I absolutely adore my computer. Up until March of this year, I had a dinosaur of a computer that I got in 1999. It was delivered in a box that looked like a cow. Remember those? My favorite computer geek added a second hard drive to it, but even then there wasn't much memory and it was slow, slow, slow! It ran Windows 98. :-) We have DSL, and my computer geek said I was lucky that the DSL worked with the old thing.
In March, I bought a used/reconditioned computer with lots more bells and whistles. Compared to what I was using, it's so fast. In fact, I just ran a speed test.
Last Result:
Download Speed: 3941 kbps (492.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 300 kbps (37.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
With my old faithful, I often had speeds that were worse than the slowest dial-up. At best, it got to about 800 kbps download speed.

I love my computer. It is much faster and easier to use the desktop and I can take it with me anywhere.

I love my computer a lot. I just got it last year so it's pretty new. It's not even a year old yet haha. It's not that lightweight though. I didn't want to spend so much on a computer just for it to be light weight so I'm stuck with not so light one now. The memory's pretty big though and I don't travel with my laptop a lot. So overall, I'm really pleased with my laptop. :)
