Replacing your desktop with a 17inch notebook


I was always been reluctant to get rid of my desktop and replace it with a notebook, until I got my Gateway MX8711 - 17inch notebook that I bought from Circuit City for $799 after $100 mail-in rebate. Once of the key things I liked about this notebook was the full keyboard. I thought that was a great deal last February when I bought mine. This afternoon I was browsing and came across these amazing deals at Circuit City - a Toshiba 17 inch notebook for $619 - wow!

The only thing I would recommend is upgrading the memory of these babies to at least 2GB. Mine works great with 2GB (eBay $60 approx.) . Also these 17 inch notebooks need bigger carrying cases and they are bit on the heavier side.
