I am in the market for a laptop. I used to be a computer geek but I'm so out of things now that I have no clue what to look for. I am wanting a computer that I can use to get online from nearly anywhere. Is it possible to get a computer with a wireless server package? I realize it would be a cellular sort of deal probably. What can I get and what would be the best deal. What do I look for in wireless cards? etc. I realize this sounds incredibly naive and it really is. Please give me some tips. I am looking at computers through Dell, to begin with, as I get a student discount from there. Any tips specific to Dell? I don't need a computer with great graphics. I want one with a reasonably standard sized keyboard and a good large screen as I am reading a LOT of online articles. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.
