OK so I know there are a few threads talking about laptops. Well I read some and don't really have a bunch of time to keep digging. My DH informed me the other night he wants me to get a laptop for my PC biz for Christmas. So I've been shopping for one around the $500 range. Not sure...

Does anyone else have a problem with their laptop just shutting down for no apparent reason? I'll be reading here on CS and then !! it shuts itself right off and I have to reboot it. It's happened 5 times in the last few days and the only thing different I can think of that I've been doing is...

I FINALLY got my new Dell laptop about 5 minutes ago and I already screwed something up. It's totally not a major problem just annoying... When I turned the computer on the very first time it asked for my name well for some reason I typed SUND and hit enter. I want my name and not SUND. I...

My computer had a stroke 2 weeks ago. All of a sudden I couldn't get on the internet even though I still had access to all my files.

Does P3 work with Vista? Hubby got me a new laptop and it came with vista :)

Aloha all, I am thinking of buying a new laptop for PC and was wondering what options are available to us. I thought I had heard or read somewhere (but can't seem to find it) that PC Consultants could get a discount either at Office Depot or via Dell. Is anyone familiar with this...

I bring it to all of my shows and now I'm going to have to do my shows by hand for a while. I get really nervous doing the math with people sitting right there and had to eat $5 - $10 before I had the laptop. Any suggestions on how to make it easier on myself until we get a new laptop?

My laptop was not working this morning and I went into panic mode. I tried everything to get it going. One great call to HP support and I am typing this message on my laptop. I love GREAT customer service and I got it today!

Aaargh, this is so frustrating. I've thought P3 was great and wonderful, but the HELP topics are terrible. Okay, I got a new laptop and have installed P3 on it. Quick and simple. Then we put the backup file on a CD and I transferred it to my desktop on new computer. When I try to restore...

Hi Everyone, My daughter just got a laptop and I figured out how to get her hooked up to our wireless router:)! I know this is probably no big deal for the rest of you, but it's a big deal for me:)!!! I'm using her laptop right now. I'm just very proud I figured it out!

:love::love::love::love::love: I brought my laptop to my first show tonight and I LOVE IT! It's one of the best business choices I have ever made. It was great to be able to enter in all the orders right there and not have to worry about coming home from my show and doing it. It was great to...

Since I got my new laptop I figured I would finally take the jump and download P3! :eek: GULP! I was just too lazy to do so earlier but I also just spent a lot of time loading Windows onto my Mac so I figured "Why not?" My question is, the only show I currently have open has two outside...

I asked for money to go towards a laptop for Christmas last year and said that the first month I do over $4000 in sales I will use that money to buy the rest of my laptop. Well, in May I did over $4000 so I get to get my laptop. I'm getting a MacBook since I'm a Mac girl who hates being stuck...

My current laptop is wheezing, gasping, whining and making all kinds of disconcerting noises. It's also started locking up at very inopportune moments. I'm afraid that it isn't going to last much longer. (I've backed everything up just in case it's demise is sooner than later.) Any...

My battery charger for my laptop is making a hissing noise..... Is that a bad thing????:confused:

This was asked in the shout box earlier but I dont know if anyone answered. Has anyone used the Office Depot Card to get a laptop? Did you get a discount? Just checking to see if anyone has looked into this.

For those of you that have Laptops, do you take them to the shows? Do you find this to be a big time saver? Do you think it takes away from your personal time with the customer? We just bought a Laptop, and I am torn about taking it to the shows...and I feel like it looks a bit...

I am thinking of getting a laptop for my PC biz but am really not sure what I want. I have heard good things and bad things about Vista and am really not sure what size laptop screen I want, what kind of laptop I want and I have to say, I am a bit dumb when it comes to this stuff. I know I...

I'm leaving on Monday for Orlando, I'll be spending the week there with my mom and sister for an all-girls trip. Our hotel has free wireless internet, and I'm debating bringing my laptop. I'm a full-time student, and I'm going during the middle of classes, so I have a ton of work to do. I would...

I just purchased a laptop with Vista. I wanted to copy my information from PP3 desktop (XP). But when I tried to transfer with gig stick it would say invalid path. So how do I fix that? Thanks.

I just got a new laptop for Christmas and was finally getting around to loading PPP onto it. Is there anyway that I can transfer all of my show data from my home computer onto the laptop? :)

Hey! I'm desperately in need of a new laptop. I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not P3 works with Vista. I know a while ago it didn't, and since that seems to be my only option for an operating system, I might just have to wait. TIA!!

I am using it for the first time tonight at my show. Does anyone have any pointers or anything I need to know to make things run smoothly?

I have a quick question...hope you guys can help. I have P3 installed on our desktop in my office (which is in the basement, so not a lot of traffic) which has a printer hooked up to it. We use my laptop upstairs during the day when DD is up and active if we need to, so we can keep an eye on...

I have been on the phone with Dell for a total of 3 hours over the past two days. My CD Burner will not work!! They had to restore my system as if it just came out of the box (which by the way it came out of the box last Wednesday, that's right LESS than a week)! That of course deleted my P3...
