Toshiba has generally good build quality. Macs are probably the best, but way too expensive .

Agreed. I find that Thinkpads excel better than other laptop, even at lower configuration.

Agreed BootCamp

This would the same as asking what kind of car is the best.... Nobody can answer such a vage question in an objective manner ....


Almost any brand is good. Everything depends on the specs of the laptops. So, nobody can decently answer your question in this way, not if you don't give any specs.

And even then, it highly depends on what you want to do with the laptop. eg: A laptop with certain specs can be excellent for my needs, but can be garbage for your needs.

Also, each brand has his own layout of keys, mousepad, extra buttons, etc. It again depends on what you fancy. eg: do you like the mousepad to have extra mouse buttons, a dedicated scroll area, etc... Do you want the laptop to have extra (media) buttons to directly control stuff, etc...

For instance, if you want a RS232 and parallel port on your 15" screensize laptop, only a very very few brands will be left over to choose from. All these things could influence your choice of a particular brand.

So, again, everything depends on the specs of the laptops and what you want to do with it. Only then you could decide that brand X is more appealing or worth the money or cheaper or whatever than brand Y for those specific laptop specs.

As alot of people have said here, it depends what you want to use it for. If you want a ultra portable pc, for just browsing and word documents, then the EEEPC is for you. If you want a ultimate gaming/desktop replacement then Alienware/Dell are for you (alienware is owned by dell). If you want an allrounder that's cheap and well spec'd that you can play most games on, acer.

You could do it all day, but you have to take a bit of responsibility for choosing a laptop. We all have different needs. And at the end of the day you will be using it.

shit. that sounds like a pretty sexy computer.

Edit: Just like CookieRevised said, it depens on what i will be doing in the computer and the use.

I need it for work and maybe games, music and few videos, so i think i need memory ram and storage capacity. With work i mean office 2003 and maybe some corel files.  Don't think i need a monster.

I use mine for nothing really Surfing, E-Mailing, Downloading and MSN lol

I traded my Dell XPS 700 Gaming PC for Dell XPS M1330

By trade i mean i sold the PC for the Price i was paying for laptop.
