Computer (Laptop) Advice Needed

[Laura48]

Hey y'all ... I'm looking into getting a new laptop and was wondering if any of you have a laptop and if you do, what kind is it, if you like it and what are some of the features? Matt showed me cnet's top 5 and I like this (http://computers.cnet.com/hardware/0-1027-404-8943263.html?tag=topfive) one so far. All help will be greately appreciated!!

Hmm, I don't know that much about them, but if I were going to put that much money into a laptop, I'd goto Alienware (http://www.alienware.com) and build my own.

JMHO

Caleb - I wouldn't know where to start or what to add in order to build my own ... that's my problem. I don't know much about the "guts" of a computer and what I should get on one .... :smirk:

Dude! You could always get a Dell...:p

Just stay away from Compaq and Hewlett Packard, I wouldn't touch them with a 200ft pole.

Unfortuantely I learned the hard way not to buy another Compaq (CRAPAQ). It was a $2500 mistake ... :scowl:
