Do you game on that? If so, how do you find it copes? The screen's better than what you'll find on most laptops at the moment. I hate that every manufacturer and his dog are trying to flog off cheap 1366x768 panels.

I'm about to pull the trigger on a SSD, I just need to set aside $300.

Works fine for gaming if I crank the settings down. It was in the high-middle range when I got it back in 2008, so it works great on games from about that time.

I don't know what most of this stuff means, unfortunately. All I know that it's a white MacBook running OS X v.10.6.7, and I'm upgrading it to another MacBook in June, to coincide with my birthday.

Personally, I'd be upgrading to a Macbook Pro or Air. I wouldn't bother with a standard White Macbook. For the difference in price, you get a better screen, more ram, a faster CPU and much better build quality, at least with the Pro 13".

What Im just using is no other than a Nokia mobile phone.It can surf the Internet.

I'm using an outdated Dell laptop (2007 model, I think). I'm not sure of the exact model, but it's still pretty decent. I'm getting a new desktop soon, since my other one, which has faithfully served me since '01, finally croaked.

The worst ever laptop in existence, i was as stupid as to go and buy Dell Studio 1555.
It looks good, but it sucks when it comes to security.

The laptop itself doesn't determine the security, the OS and the person using it do.

 

[Echidna]

not when it comes to a computer who's system breaks down before i put ANYTHING on it. I am NOT kidding. I had the pc, with nothing on it only a few docs i wrote and a couple pieces of art i tried to draw. And it started to mess up. Every anti-virus i would get, would become a virus itself. Everyone knows how crappy Dell computers are (not as bad as acer, but still).

 

[Shining Raichu]

I'm using a Sony Vaio laptop that I bought in 2008. I know nothing more about it... except that it works.

Dell computers are fine. Windows is also the same across brands. Any security issues are caused after purchase, generally through naiveté or negligence. Get a decent Security suite and watch what you download.

Well, you must have visited a site or downloaded something without realizing either were infected. Security issues don't happen out of the box unless you're being intentionally targeted by malware at your IP address at the time you connect to the internet. Sure, there may be that useless bloatware that it comes with, but that stuff is harmless and only hogs your system resources and it will let you uninstall it.

Also, Dell had a mishap in the middle of this decade with a driver and failed to own up and recall all its machines while its competitors were much smarter and chose to recall the machines with the failed driver. Their brand suffered as a result. That doesn't mean new Dells are bad. Their customer support is supposedly among the worst in the industry, though.
