    I can't believe you asked for a "good" laptop and then said not macs :D

    Of all the laptops I have owned, I think the Toshiba was the worst by far. I would lean to IBM's laptops if I was going to buy another windows laptop.

    I'd definitly go with any of the thinkpad models Most of 'em weigh 4-5 lbs and get 6-7 hours battery life. I hate touch pads (or whatever they're called) so that's one of the reasons I like the thinkpad. They have the little red mouse button thingy in the middle of the keyboard, which once you get used to it, you'll never go back. at least I won't :)

    I don't like toshiba, I had one it crashed quite a bit and they made the reboot discs custom so to get the thing to work again since my boot discs wouldn't load I had to pay 30 bucks for a set of new ones and had to wait like 3 months.

    However, i've had a sony vaio those are quite good in my opinion.

    Try Sager for a full desktop replacement model. If you're going for slim and trendy, hmmm, Apple.

    Try Sager, it has the same OEM maker as Alienware: Clevo, a taiwanese based hardware maker, something Alienware wouldn;t want its customers to know. Sager is much cheaper than Alienware for the same value.
