Thanks a bunch! The notebook came with a "FLiP Video Recorder" (records 2 hours) that u can hook up to it and upload the videos. Also it came with a CD for a one year licensed virus software. So i installed it, its called "Anti Virus-Plus" : Hope it does good. :bro:

Thanks again for the words my friend.
