Is This a Good Deal?
HI! I’m looking to buy a laptop. I’ve been checking out all the deal and bargain sites through google. I came across a few sites with the same prices, but they are wholesale prices from China. Here’s a link to one of them.http://www.coosource.com/gateway-nv5…lue-p-135.html
Even though it’s says wholesale, you can purchase just one. I’ve looked at many laptops on this site, and I like this one:
Gateway NV53A82u LX.WM802.029 Notebook PC – AMD Phenom II Dual-Core N660 3.0GHz, 4GB DDR3, 320GB HDD, DVDRW, ATI Radeon HD 4250, 15.6″ Display, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, Blue
From what I glean from the site, they do drop shipping, and charge $ 30 shipping. I’m not completely sure what drop shipping is, and do you have to pay tariffs? Is this a good place to get a laptop? Also, reading reviews on the gateway, the only con is that it runs hot. A friend said this is no problem as all laptops run hot, and I can get a laptop heat pad to remedy this situation. If that is so, any recommendations on a heat pad? Any and all responses will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes: Best Sci-Tech Film This Year
It is not a box-office smash as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2. It is not well-praised as The Tree of Life. And it is not highly budgeted as Transformers: Dark of the Moon. But my favorite 2011 movie so far is Rise of the Planet of the Apes. What can I do? I am a sci-tech film fanatic. Rise is a creepy, sci-tech thriller, making you root for the feisty apes and reprove the errant humans.
The movie is another of those films dealing with the theme of man’s arrogance and ignorance of others that lead to his doom. However, something is concocted in the film that breaks the mold from other sci-tech flicks – compassion. That is, man also cares for others despite his being unscrupulous. He also knows that sometimes if things have gone awry, he needs to stop and think about what he has done. This is the relationship portrayed in the characters of Will Rodman (James Franco) and Caesar (Andy Serkis), the ape. Caesar is a product of Rodman’s ALZ 12 experiment, but instead of abandoning his test subject, he adopts the creature and treats him as his own child. That is why Rodman always calls himself as “your father” and never treats Caesar as a pet. The bonding is even strengthened when the doctor introduces him to his dad Dodge Landon (John Lithgow), fiancee Caroline Aranha (Freida Pinto), and the Red Woods.
The conflict is not about Rodman’s scientific breakthrough but greed as seen in Robert Franklin (Tyler Labine) and Gen X Sys that “invest in results, not dreams”. Their results are also their demise in the hands of a new breed of simians that they created.
