Question with all of you with laptops out there. How long did your laptops last, and what malfunctions have you experienced with it? Three things I want to know: 1) Laptop model. 2) How long did it work before first problems occurred? 3) What problem did you have with it? I'm mostly interested in hardware issues and any information will be highly appreciated.
