How do you buy a laptop and not get taken on extras???

Hi and welcome to my blog,
I opened this blog to help anyone who is preparing for his SAT.
I remember myself when I started - I was so lost and in such a panic.
Luckily I got this great SAT guide that helped me a lot . So study hard and good luck!
I want to buy a laptop so that we can use it on the dining room table, or in our rooms. I keep looking and can’t find one that looks like it’s worth buying unless it’s over ,000. I guess I don’t know what I need, and what I don’t need. I want it to be fast enough to surf the web…and for the kids to do school work on, other than that, just what ever games they play online, and to print pictures. What would y’all suggest? I want to spend between 0 and 0 tops! OH- and we have a cable modem now, do we have to cancel that and go with a dsl? I’m confused.
Thanks!

Would a laptop using wireless connection off my router dramatically slow down my internet speed? (More info..)
A family member just got a new laptop. I recently got a router hooked up to my DSL to share net with another desktop PC in the house, and my connection was fine. But as soon as this laptop goes on, it seems like some programs go dramatically slower. When I use certain multiplayer online games now, I lag a LOT. I’m not sure if it’s just the servers, or if this was induced by the laptop. Do laptops use more bandwidth than desktops when using the internet? If so, why? And is there a way I can test specifically if this laptop is slowing me down, like some online test I can run? I’m not sure if it’s my imagination, but since this laptop got hooked up it seems like everything I go on is really slow.
