i need to buy a new computer. any recommendations? i guess i dont need anything too fancy, just want to run HEM fast + a bajillion tables + music + idle browsing...

also: do most notebooks have a hookup for a larger monitor? would be nice to be able to hook my laptop up to a 24' or whatever when im at home.

is going to bestbuy/ one of the big chains fine ?

i am impatient.

also: relatively high screen resolution is a must
