it is a great life living on a boat, I really enjoy it, getting home late at night after a stress filleed day, untieing, starting up and going out on the river, throwing ancor and spending the night on the river.

Anyway, I guess that I will have to go and check them up, or even better, give them a phone call and ask them about any possible discount.

Rebecca,
I haven't checked out that link that you provided, but just for general knowledge: does it specify for only a laptop or to a desktop aswell?

There's info. for both I think - the most important thing I found was making sure you get a good graphics card - there's info for that on there...

It is not my machine, but rebecca, if you want my advice, you better stick to windows. I know how many bugs and viruses and torjan horses there are for windows, but its platform is preatty stable for after ; maya and any other piece of software we need.
