Open 'settings'-

open 'location and security'-

open 'select device administrators'

here you will see Mcafee listed, uncheck the square box in front of it. Close all of it and now uninstall Mcafee like any other application.

try this :bananarock:

Sweet, I'll give it a go

Like Kris said, dont go looking for a particular model, go looking for a list of specs and make sure that the computer meets these specs:

Minimum Requirements:

1TB HDD
8GB Ram
Intel i5 Processor or AMD equivalent.

anything with those 3 specs will be a fairly decent computer and should last you around the next 4-5 years

You're the man, Nic. Thanks

Agreed. Asus or HP for laptops.

BTW. Anyone got a HP Microserver they want to sell? :) I want to change from my NAS to a server and then I can have my storage and run my P2P stuff 24/7 on the one device.

actually todd, my minimum is correct, your specs would be the "Recommended" specs, although i wouldn't recommend an i7 processor if you want to get decent battery life, they chew through the power. i5 are much more reasonably spec'd for laptop use
