• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

I am considering buying a laptop on black friday to use this spring for chasing. I already have a separate macbook that i will use for most of my computer needs. But i want one to keep in the car that will probably solely run radar software on. The problem is that i am fairly computer illiterate, especially for a 17 year old. I was just wondering if anybody on here had some advice as to what i should be looking for.
 
Just a thought....

My wifes Dell Inspiron 6000 (6 years old) runs GR3 just fine, and I just saw a LOT of them for sale used on Ebay for under $100. I don't know if it has enough horsepower to run the streaming software and all the other stuff, but my point was maybe you could consider an outdated (and CHEAP) laptop to take chasing.

Good luck!
 
Not sure how much you want to spend but, Newegg.com has some great deals today. I just picked up a 15" Acer for a great price....
