    dell laptops are quite good value for money. Desktops dell are terrible. Apart from Dell, I'd go for either Toshiba or ASUS. Whatever you do don't get a hp or Compaq.

    Best Economics Textbook

    is the Cambridge Economics book any good? We use that at school because our teacher said Dixon was too generalised and did not provide enough detail and Riley was in too much detail. But sometimes, in class the teacher uses the Dixon and Riley books for making class notes.

    Economics HSC answers

    Hi, Does anyone know where to get the answers for the past HSC economics papers? I cant seem to find them anywhere and Success One don't have an economics version. The marking notes are OK, but dont give a good indication of the detail required for a Band 5/6 response.

    what does everyone think of the NEW excel?

    na waste of money i think its like $55. I think making your own dot point notes using Conquering Chemistry + your school notes and then using Success One HSC papers is better than dot point. Some of the answers in Success One are an excellent indication of band 6 answers and some are not so great.
