What laptop brand would you recommend?

Hi,

My sister is thinking of getting a laptop but I heard a lot of bad comments about different brands and I am not sure what are the good ones so I would like to have some advices from DP users. Thank you.

Cheers,

• Sony
• Toshiba
• Dell
• Hp
• Acer

this is order of what i would choose 1st

 

Lenovo(former IBM)

 

I've had good experiences with Dell and Toshiba vs bad experiences with HP

 

Get a Dell, go to www.delloutlet.com, find a laptop you like. Go to www.google.com search dell outlet coupons, and see if you find any laptop coupons.

This is what I did. I got a 2.4, 1g, 15.4 widescreen XPS for just under $600 with shipping.

 

The best laptop I had was a HP. My IBM was also good. My sister's Toshiba overheats regularly.

 

I would recommend a Toshiba laptop!
I am using a Fujitsu Siements since around 10 months now and I am happy with it (till now)

 

I would recommend Toshiba. My cousin has it (he bought it from Japan) and it works perfectly awesome even after almost 1 1/2 years.

 

Get anything but dell and if you get it by accident do NOT call their customer support or you will be forced to reply with kind of language they often use which i hope you will not be comfortable with so ........ NO DELL

 

I would recommend you to get a HP. My brother has one and it's great

 

Expensive Sony Vaio or very expensive AlienWare

Afordable HP (i have 2 )

 

i suggest you ...JUST DELL .
you can see latest products of dell here : www-dell-com

 

If your budget is large, there are many good brands to choose from. I would suggest Toshiba. But if your budget is less, you can buy an Acer Laptop (like me). Check for configurations and features too to suit the needs before buying.

 

Agree, and I have been using one for three years, nothing is wrong with it. And so does my cousin, and he has been with it for 5 years.

 

Thank you for the feedbacks and advices. My sister has a tight budget so she is hoping to get a lower price laptop with reasonable performance. Any recommendations?

Thank you.

 

Dude, you're getting a Dell!!!

 

I am serious and this is very honest advice that do NOT get a dell. You will regret it...... I dont know why people like Dell whats so special. Prices are very great. Quality isnt very good either. There is no such thing as support I just dont know why

 

I have a Dell Inspiron e1705 and it is great. I really like it alot. I would recommend it.

 

I'd recommend a Dell for a laptop and a Compaq for a desktop.

 

I've had an HP and now a Toshiba. Do not ever get an HP notebook, they have a known power jack issue (and here) which they never fix. It gets weak and can't receive power, they can't fix it, when they do, it's only for a short period of time that the fix will last.

My Toshiba Satellite notebook has been great, I just wish I got the one with the dual core processor instead.
