Buying a laptop

Can someone recommend something up to 1200 dollars? My sister's buying one and I'm not exactly an expert. :\

MACS!!!!

Everyone I know who's had a laptop that wasn't a mac has had problems.

Think pad directly from Lenovo. It's cheaper than if you buy it locally and it has durability that most lap tops (they tend to burn out) don't have.

I had a problematic Acer before. I do not recommend them.

The Think Pad, ordered with exactly what I and my husband wanted has been trouble free! I LOVE it!

Macbook pro costs around that price, if that is too steep there is always the macbook. Still costs a pretty penny, but depending on what you want this for, it works well.

I'm stuck in the dark ages, I have a powerbook. Bought it used...never had any problems with it.

Whatever you wind up getting try to have a local place that does any warranty work so they do not have to "mail it off" So many customers have minor problems like a keyboard or such and they have to wait weeks when it is a simple 20 minute repair. Also try and avoid anything that only comes with a 90 day warranty as there is a reason. MACS are definitely the way to go unless of course you have to have a windows based system, I have a Toshiba but I am rarely on it, no problems with it thus far. If you get an
-out of the box- unit plan to uninstall a lot of garbage ie: trial versions, registrations, nags, and such. Good Luck.

We've decided on this one:


Mmmm...preeeetty....

It's not ordered yet, so if anyone has any experiences or qualms with it, please let me know...(:

I believe that would be around 4500 dollars...just a tad over my price range...

My husband and I have Vaios, Adi, and they're fantastic. They're the best out there in my opinion. Have fun!
