Warranty, warranty, warranty. Also, check out what features (RAM, processor, video, sound, screen size, battery cell size) each has. Find out if any of them have a back up OS disc and not some cheesy recovery discs, like ahem hm hm hm HP. Also, find out if they fixed the battery recall. Up to you, but find out about Toshiba. Ran two of em, and they were the shiz. No problems what so ever!!

$650 is the most Im going on this any more tips ?

Say no to Dell, I use a Toshiba at home. I have a couple of Sony's at the office and the wife uses a HP. Of all of them I like my Toshiba the best.
All that said, when this one crashes I am making the switch to an Apple. |
my wife uses a hp for work doing programing and she has not had any probs I'm not suer of the cost :humm:
|
despite my father working for HP, lol, dont get one, i know of at least three, including mine, that have a nasty overheating problem. if i watch a movie or play a game it heats up and crashes the graphics card, turning the screen a lovely shade of green. :argh:
|

My Uncle just sent his HP away - it was off warranty and they replaced the motherboard for free. As far as I know HP is the same thing as Compaq = same company. FWIW, when I got my laptop - I originally bought a Toshiba Satelight - pulled it out of the box and it had dead pixles. Pulled three more out of the boxes at the store and they ALL had dead pixles. That being said, my HP has a dead DVD drive and Ive probably burned 2 disks and read from maybe 10 others. They dont make laptops like they used to. The ones you get today are disposables (just like everything else). |
