good specs for a writer

[pc101]

---

my laptop has gone to gadget heaven. the vga board got fried. looks like i was working it too hard.

so now i'm looking for a replacement asap. i was planning to buy another one but it could be a waste of money. i might overheat it again.

so i guess a good pc would just do.

my prob is i don't know where to buy and what specs would be enough for my work.

i usually use the pc to write my articles and surf the net.

got any suggestions?

any help will be greatly appreciated!

@istoryanimo: adtoon nya na nko..pero ok ra ba na mag-on ang laptop for 7-8 hours?? i think mao na ang reason nga naguba akong laptop nya naka cooling pad and electirc fan 2 xa. kung mupalit ko lain basin maguba ra pd dayon. sayang.

mas maayo ang CRT compared to LCD... its due to the higher refresh rater... flicker free...

I would advice you review your sources in regards to refresh rate comparison between LCD & CRT, Also LCDs dont flicker as they dont update the screen in a scan line style.[br]Posted on: March 15, 2008, 09:02:13 PM_________________________________________________@ PC101

A good quality and low priced LCD will be a better choice, flickering issues that causes eye strain.

thanks EarlZ. I did notice that I didn't suffer from eyestrain when I used my laptop but I didn't know why then. So now I know why and I am definitely getting an LCD.

lcd monitors consume less electricity than CRTs too.

add: has better contrast, lighter in weight and lesser in height output.

Answer: pwede ra 7-8 hours ang imong notebook, regarding cooling system you have to buy it for that.

Answer: For eyestrain problems try this to put in your desktop settings for background display. It helps by the way.
