This laptop is a Hewlett Packard ATI Rage Mobility operating MS Windows XP at 127 MB Ram
Although not a top spec, top of the range laptop this computer has been well worth purchasing simply due to the fact of the cost and also its ability...I pickled it up in Cash Convertors for £175.00
The pc is able to operate programmes like ms office, cool edit pro, sound forge etc etc so can be brought into use on investigations in all areas such as video (webcam), evp as it has an in built microphone and also has a jack point where a 2G emf meter can be connected to and run through sound forge to make the meter more sensitive
Downside's.....well there's only a couple :(
1. CD ROM only so no re writing of discs 2. Only one usb port...can only connect one usb device at a time 3. Could do with a bit more ram
All these downfalls are easily combated though by a simple upgrade
If you come across one of these do invest in one as its helped us out alot
Lord Halifax's Ghost Book is what I term as one of those books that every ghost hunter should read for it's content and variations in it's stories.
The book was composed by Lord Halifax who collected stories of paranormal origin for numeroud years and then included the stories in Lord Halifax's Ghost Book as a compendium on the stories he encountered.
There are numerous stories in the book, around 79, which cover crisis apparitions right through to ghostly stories about submarines. The time period Lord Halifax covers is quite remarkable.
The book has published and republished many times and people wanting to get a copy of this book should try a local secondhand bookshop first or failing this www.amazon.co.uk
Some of the stories are excellent whilst others need a considerable amount stretching the imagination to believe.
Well worth reading though just for the historical analysis of ghosts.
