      I saw alot of brands for laptop today, Acer, Benz, Vivo, Fujitsu, HP, LG...

       

      Would like to ask,

       

      What brand is recommended?

      -Value for money

      -Budget

      -No or little errors encountered

       

      Thank you.

      Brand: Preference, people choose between many brands. I say Acer. But I'm open minded.

      Value: What are you looking to do with it when you get it? Look at the specs given, does it suit your needs? Compare.

      Budget: Again, what are your needs?

      Errors: It's how you upkeep your system.

      Compaq

       

      mine's a refurbished NC6000 at 800 bucks.. runs on XP though,pre-loaded, which means you need to get the drivers and save them somewhere before anything bad happens icon_lol.gif

      My budget is about $1300, hope to get a Core II Duo processor.

      I am not a gamer, Graphic card and laptop spec to be at the mid-range spec.

      Monitor size is about 14inch, not too big, light weight, suitable to carry out often.

      Important: Battery life hope to last longer than normal.

      hmm, the way to go would be levono (about 1.3-1.6k) and compaq (good specs for it's price range as compared to HP.) or acers (Seems that their sv has improved + built quality too)

       

      Note, Acers are getting better. (Gem blue series.)

      Good built quality+ specs.

      However they are 1.9++

      seems like Acer is going the higher end way. (good reviews of them too)
