Help....

I'm thinking about buying a laptop and I heard you can get them with the wireless web card already installed now. How does that work? Do you have to be in a place that has a signal to pick up the web or does it pick it up from a beam off a tower like a cell phone does?

No. Its so that you can hook up to wireless web that's installed in your home. To do something like have a long distance cell phone is going to take quite a while longer.

Well I noticed that some of the laptops have pentium 4's and some have M's!! Is there a difference in the speed of one over the other? Which is better?

the M's are smaller, they also require less energy, and run cooler and require a smaller cooling fan. so they can make laptops smaller, more compact with more features.
