Re: What is the best brand for the laptop?

Currently I have a Lenovo Laptop with Windows 7 x64 bit for work.

Get a laptop with either Windows XP Pro or Windows 7 Pro. You won't be disappointed!

Skip Vista and 8.

Lenovo and Dell are good for support on hardware drivers.

Acer would be an option for a good low end laptop.

I have one of the first Acer Aspire One netbooks that I maxxed out the RAM on, installed a Solid State Drive (SSD) and installed vanilla XP Pro with all of the appropriate hardware drivers....that little sucker flies like a mini bat out of hell!!!...LOL!

So whatever you get, optimize it for how you use it...you won't be disappointed!

PS--If you just "gotta" have a Mac, go here!:

Buy Refurbished and Used Apple Laptop Computers | mac of all trades

I have ordered several PowerPC based Macs from them and they have a good reputation and competitive prices for used machines! They also sell the Intel based Macs!

I currently run an Acer Aspire (entry level i3) Win 8 64 bit (with classic shell) for work.. Nice little laptop. It's pretty peppy with 4GB of ram. Would love to pop in an SSD. Battery life is great. My old laptop was an Acer Travel Mate circa 2006, built like a tank(mostly) ran XP pro. Finally the battery and the HDD went out.(was old IDE connector) not worth repairing. I would love to have a Lenovo too.

I would recommend apple (Mac book)
It lasts a long time
Its bit expensive, but worthwhile

MACs are more than a bit expensive, I could never justify paying 1,500 to 4,000 bucks for a computer.

Even their refurbished equipment is out of reach.

but that's just my current financial situation, I'd love one in the future
