What is the best way to go about buying a new laptop currently?

I have my own dinosaur with XP that a relative is a user on. He wants his own laptop. I understand that certain vendors will offer coupons for a switch to Windows 7 from Vista (in June or July) with a newly bought computer that still has vista. Is it better to wait until supposedly Oct. 22nd to just buy the new one with Windows 7 already installed rather then going through an upgrade from the MS website if I bought now?

How can I afford to buy a new laptop, on a limited budget?

My old laptop just died, and I am considering options to purchase a new notebook computer. From my research, I am interested in purchasing an HP Pavilion DV4015CL Notebook. It retails for US $1,699.99.

I am on a limited budget, having just started a new job, and I am trying to consider options for how to legally finance this purchase. Does anyone have any ideas? I don’t want to say “I can’t afford this”,because it doesn’t help my situation. My philosophy is that when you ask “how can I afford this?”, it provides you with more options to think outside the box, and is not so limited or self-defeating.

Any ideas or suggestions will be welcome. For instance, I thought about investing in stocks, but I don’t know too much about that.

How important is Bluetooth capability for a new laptop? Anyone using it extensively with a cell phone?

I’m going to buy a new laptop, but can’t decide between two models. One with Bluetooth, the other without. I’m wondering how important is Bluetooth. I’ll get a cell phone with Bluetooth capability. Are people using Bluetooth and cell phone to connect their laptops on the Internet? I know this is expensive right now, but will this bluetooth link become essential over time? If it’s just something nice to have, I’m leaning towards skipping it. Could someone knowledgeable please speak from your experience? Thanks.
