I know, its a Dell. I have just purchased me a cheap refurbed Dell laptop. One thing I have noticed is that once the desktop is up it's about another minute or more before anyhting will start. You can click on whatever you want and nothing will happen but as soon as it is ready everything you clicked on will come up. Kind of funny but anoying. Running it on a wireless connection and that seems to be the last thing that pops up. It's a 2.6 Cel but it should be faster then this it seems. Its my first laptop so maybe this is just normal for a laptop. Running XP Home with SP 2 on it.
