    Hi, i need a laptop for college. I really want something that will last me at least 4 years and i want something that is going to be quick and reliable for a long time. There is an FZ on ebay right now that comes with these specs and Microsoft Office Small business. Is it worth bidding on or should i wait for the newer laptops to come out. my budget is $1500.

    here are the specs:
    *
    Intel® Core 2™ Duo Processor T9300 (2.5GHz)
    *
    Microsoft® Windows Vista® Ultimate with Service Pack 1
    *
    4 GB DDR-SDRAM (DDR2-667, 2 GBx2)
    *
    200GB SATA Hard Disk Drive [7200 rpm]
    *
    Blu-ray Disc™ Read Only Drive
    *
    LCD 15.4" WXGA (XBRITE-HiColor™) with integrated video camera
    *
    NVIDIA® GeForce® 8400M GT
    *
    WLAN (802.11a/b/g/n) with integrated Bluetooth® technology
    *
    Black
    *
    Extended Battery (BPL8)

    and then the Microsoft Office Small business.

    How much would it be worth bidding to get a good deal. I want to bid if i can get a good deal but at the same time i can wait until the end of july at the latest as i need it for college

    I recommend posting this message in the "What should I buy?" forum. You'll get more respons there I assume.
