You've had good luck w/ Compaqs? Wow :)

Cat hair is a problem for you, too? One thing that i'm glad about with this laptop is that I can close it and keep the cat hair off, then store it so it probably won't get hair in/on it.

I liked my Dell when I had it, but Dell's on my shitlist w/ a bullet. The laptop i'm talking to you from now is an HP, and it was worth waiting a decade for.
