Just double check on the Dell site that the drivers are there for XP, they should be but just in case. My HP laptops graphics card is Vista only :(

I installed a Sky router t'other day, didn't even unseal the envelope the CD came in

Can signon without the software on a usb modem as well as long as you have a PPoE driver for it ;)

generally most of the AOL problems i've solved for friends are down to the software rather than the service.

nothing ever comes for free, especially from AOL!

it may look at like a good deal, but you will pay for it as you would have an extended contract etc and higher prices over the course of the contract.

I would use a cheaper ISP and buy a cheapo laptop seperatly

Re: AOL's free laptop
 
That’s about right I'd say the cost of the laptop is factored in
