Okay so anyone want to have a panic attack? I am thinking of buying a new lap top... hold your breath... I am going to get it from wal-mart.

Okay commence the bitching. Now please recall I live on a limited budget do nothing but surf the net, play an occassion slot game, write a few stories and ummm..... well that would be about it.. so I figure this model will do it.

Gateway 17.3" NE71B06u Laptop PC with AMD E1-1200 Processor and Windows 8

LK and I have had wonderful success with the AMD processors... although we have heard some nerdy things about the windows 8 program... that it is better for touch screen stuff. Have any of you heard anything really bad about the windows 8 software besides this. Now I know I have opened a can of worms by asking this question. But I do care for your opinions although I may or may not listen to them in the end cause at this point money is definetly a HUGE deciding factor and this little tot of a lappy will only set me back $450.00 with taxes and trust me that is something I DEFINETLY like.

So let's hear your opinions and PLEASE if it cost over 1,000 dollars your out of my price range.
