Greets,
Last time I bought a laptop, I got one from Sager Midern Computer...a small company in California. I was pretty satisfied with it, except it sounded like a jet engine once the HDD was being accessed continuously, or I ran a video game.
edit: but it got stolen.
Normally I shy away from buying computers made by name brand companies like HP/Compaq, Dell, Gateway, etc...but from all the laptop threads I've been reading, Dell seems to be the choice.
I need something for school, but would be nice to play a game on in my downtime. I probably wouldn't be installing WoW or NWN2 on it or anything, so a nice amount of RAM (1 GB >), 40-80 GB HDD, and a Core 2 Duo or a Turion x2. Any ideas?
Here's my last laptop:
$1260
