Laptops running eprime

[Nicole C. McLaughlin]

I had an old Dell Inspiron (from 1998!) and it seems to work fine with the 
programs I am running- no timing issues.
I am a big fan of Dell, so that would be my first choice...

Leisha,

I have been playing with several older IBM Thinkpad Laptops -- these are
some of the finest PCs available, although they are rather pricey when
brand new. They are rugged, reliable machines that won't let you down. I
have not tried to put E-Prime on these machines, but I might try that in
the future. The Thinkpad would be my first choice as a portable platform
for experiments. They are also highly modular, and easy to modify (
CPUs, batteries, memory, drives ) I will be happy to give you basic
information about the various types of Thinkpads out there and discuss
this further, if you want to email me off list.

I'm pricing out laptops to run a simple eprime task at various
locations. Do any of you have recommendations for laptops that work well

for this? So far the HP Pavilions and Dell Latitude or Inspiron are
looking good. I'm steering clear of Celeron processors and I don't think

I can use MacIntosh, right?

Any problems to report? Any praise for specific laptops?

Thanks,
