Help...Looking for a good Laptop

**FuzzyDunlop** · 03-03-11, 02:22 PM

What are you looking to do with it exactly?

**orlikowski** · 03-03-11, 02:23 PM

I have a macbook and love it. Have no problem with it, works fast and well. Is expensive though. Dont recommend buying a cheap laptop. Many of my friends have Macbook Pro and love it too. ALso know people that have dells and sony and both are happy with it. I have always been told to stay away from toshiba. It also all depends on what your going to use it for.

newegg.com - goto netbooks sort by reviews

**DroidHAM** · 03-03-11, 02:25 PM

Get a netbook, dual core ones coming out super fast and batterys like 10 hours, get a 10" inch

**Bcatswin** · 03-03-11, 02:27 PM

Was wanting something with a bigger screen , like 15, 17 inches...With enough memory, how much memory is substantial?

**DroidHAM** · 03-03-11, 02:29 PM

4+ gigs, need windows 7 64 bit to recognize the full 4 gigs though, 32 bit maxes out at like 3.5

Honestly I hate anything over 15" but thats just me

Get something with a LED Backlight scree, its more efficient and better looking.

Use NEWEGG< you can sort with the advanced options on the left and then read all the reviews.

macbook pro is the best

next in line are:-

1> IBM thinkpads
2> HP/Sony
3> Dell/Toshiba

**FuzzyDunlop** · 03-03-11, 05:06 PM

Tiger Direct has better prices than NewEgg on most brands.

**NrmlCurvSurfr** · 03-03-11, 05:15 PM

Apple-macbook pro
PC-Dell XPS series

You can get a lot of bang for your buck in comparison to Dell with a Gateway if you are budget oriented. They are not as reliable though.

This. Sort of. Watch slickdeals (click forums-->hot deals-->sort by "system") or fatwallet, otherwise you're paying retail like a sucker. Microsoft's store and Lenovo run great deals very frequently where you can get 50%+ off the "discount" price you'll find at newegg, tiger direct, etc.
