Upgrade on the horizon...

The laptop I am writing with is about 5 years old. Although it performs well enough I can tell that there will come a time in the near future that I will need to make an upgrade. Technology has changed a great deal in the last five years and I am quite sure there are better things on the market. I have heard about the Galaxy Tablet PC and am a intrigued by it. Likely I won't be making a purchase before spring and have plenty of time to research the options on the market. I just bought my third power cord for this laptop and know that whatever I buy will have to have a good track record for durability.
