New laptop question...
Martini:
Unless I apply for credit from Newegg... Has anyone done this?
Ibioc:
If you're stuck with Best Buy I would go with the Toshiba Tagrey linked. Look out for going with only 4gb of ram, if you're running a bunch of stuff in addition to games (i'm usually running browsers and other crap in the background) it can slow you down.
For what it's worth Newegg does do financing that usually gives you 12 months no interest. It works just like a credit card repaying it You can apply right online and they set you up quickly. They gave me an obscenely high limit which leads me to buy nicer stuff. I guess it worked out for both of us.

ooh well I might look into just getting financed through newegg. :) I'll look into it and probably post again for laptop suggestions.
Tagrey:
If you don't pay off Newegg's card in the 12 months it applies all of the interest from the whole period. So make sure ya do, because you definitely don't want to charged the 20% or whatever theirs is for the year.

QFT. Best Buy works the same way. It's fine as long as you make your payments like you should.
