I need help on choosing a good brand laptop for a friend of mine. I know everything about specs and all that what i dont know is what brand is good and reliable as i have never bought one before because i have always made desktop builds.Thanks
I have personally owned a mac book, 2 sony viao's, a dell and an acer. The most recent two I have bought are Asus. I will prolly not purchase anything but Asus now. I wouldn't say their the absolute best but they have a great blend of style performance and value. I feel they are as durable as a macbook and as well built as the dell but with the lower price point like the acer.
i own alienware m11x-r1. my unit is great, but many others experienced keyboard, fan, o/c problem. it was also known to have hinge breaking issue, took dell a year before addresing this design flaw, dell will replace it for free even if you are out of warranty. i also own lenovo thinkpad t400. top notch build quality(metal hinge), quiet operation, superb keyboard. absolutly love it. no experience with warranty yet.
