Laptop Dying! suggestions?

thanks for all the suggestions. Ive been on line tonight looking at the items from best buy. By chatting with their on line reps I am learning that in order to streamline MLB I am being told I need more memory. They are suggesting an HP, Model: 15-f018dx. The price is not all that bad and it has many features that I could use. its under $400 and only $370 for an opened box? I would need to buy office, and it seems as tho thats a yearly expense! It has a photo program but I wonder if thats just a trial version and I have to pay down the road. Tried to ask that question but now all the online help is busy right now or should I say the last hour! I hate shopping for a computer. Not knowing what I really need. I would have this one fixed but I already replaced this hard drive 2 years ago. Tonight its working like all is good! It must have female hormones because its moody just like the wife! LOL

Look into and consider Open Office from openoffice.org
It's free and can do everything MS Office does, and is MS Office compatible.
(meaning it will open and use current and future MS Office and Excel documents.)
