it's a toshiba laptop with windows vista home premium. it has a pentium dual-core processor and it also has 4 gigs of ram. it also has a 300 gig harddrive. vista isn't all that bad if you have all of that. lol
it's a great computer!

That sounds like an awesome computer. That is true about Vista. It runs a lot better with everything you have. Do you know what type of video chip it uses. (A video chip is the same thing as a video card. The chip is for a laptop and the card is for a regular computer. Just wanted to make everybody knew the differance.)

I know what a video chip is... lol
I'm not sure what model I'm using, but windows vista does have a scoring system on the performance of your computer... my computer ranks a 3.5 out of 5. the score is determined by the lowest sub score. the lowest score was for the graphics card. but everything else ranked between a 4.7 and a 5.
it's a great computer... and apparently it didn't cost too much... my grandparents bought 4 of them. lol

I know about the scoring on vista because I had to fix a friends vista. It is still slow. I have also checked a book out from our school library that is all about vista. That is a fast computer you have though. A 3.5 isn't that bad.

That is even better. Just think what could happen if you upgraded it. I wished I had a lap top like yours.
