Just wanted to get people's opinions on what laptop they would prefer most, leave out the costs, just quality and life span wise, what is the best? IMO, I prefer Toshiba over anything..

please tell me if i've left out anything, i'll add it in.

is that because you own a toshiba? because you would get very biased responses if that was the case
i owe an asus, and it hasnt let me down yet, but i wouldnt say its best, because there are a lot of other brands out there that are better
its definitely value for money though
if you just want quality, then asus, sony and fujitsu would probably fit the bill there, but for quality, you pay more

Compaq has merged with HP.
IBM no longer has a PC division. It was taken over by Lenovo.


OTT: HP/Apple

fujitsu is like a sony...they have excellent lcd screens, and the specs you pay on the fujitsu is roughly similar to the one you pay with the sony

I researched for a laptop for ages before going with an ASUS.

It has the best value for money without having to resort to a crappy brand. Toshiba and Sony seem to have a premium added just for the brand name.

haha yeah I used my dad's centrino duo to get free internet (it's secured now so yeah what a waste of effort). But I will go get it to put a wireless n adapter on my desktop and stream movies/ music etc from there. Also getting 7.1 for notebook :)

Oh what happened to the kk / subway thread? Kinda died out lol :(
