You should be able to order your memory directly from them too. Laptop memory cards are not the same as desktop memory, so it is best to order directly from them.
A lot of people don't realize that you need to keep the C: drive between 50% - 75% for the computer to operate at optimal speed.

I really can't recommend a laptop as I won't use one and I build my own micro desktop computers (I use Shuttle type of cases for size). I know that most I hear about on here are Dells and HPs. When you are looking make sure the video is capable of dual/extended desktop so the lyrics display will show on a secondary TV/monitor. Memory should be a minimum of 1 GB. I would highly recommend pushing for them to give you XP rather than Vista. There have been too many problems with Vista and MTU has basically washed their hands of it until Microsoft gets all the bugs out of it.
You have been the most helpful person ever on here.. Thanks so much for the advice... Most all of my files are on my C drive.. Maybe I should switch to the D drive.. or expand... maybe I could just use them on an external.. Also... My ram is only 512... So that is another thing... That is what I thought about the memory also.. I might try with moving my files.. I have not put all of my files in yet even.. LOL.. But it is a good point.. Because it seemed to get worse as I was putting in all my KMA files..

Thanks again.. Hope you are having a great day..
Anita
