I'm in the market for a laptop... what company should I go with?
I've heard good things about IBM... and Compaq's laptops are really nice:D
But what would be the best buy? |

imho
Sony Vaio or Apple's PowerBook (yes, itz a MAC..but damn is it sweet!)
are really the only thingz you should look into ;) |

what a coincidence. :) i'm using my powerbook g4 titanium as i write this. lolz. funny stuff. the powerbook is better than the vaio. has better hardware. but if you're lookin' for a pc, the vaio's the way to go.
it'll cost ya around 4G's CDN. |

Take mine, it's the best! It's an old Acer ... 133mhz Pentium1 ... 16 MB of slow RAM, unbelieveable 3GB of HD space (!), including the one and only OS - Win95 (!!!). The accu lasts for about half an hour ... excellent!!!
I'd sell it for $1000 ... shipping not included :p
If u want it, PM me :D

the vaios are ok.
i love my compaq presario 1700.... its really cheap (for a laptop), has more equipment & options than the VAIO's, and has really loud built-in JBL speakers.... also has a DVD/CDRW drive hot-swappable with 3.5" floppy and zip drive.... 1 Ghz processor, 256 MB ram, ,20 Gig hard drive..... all for $1300 US.... IMO a lot better than the VAIO...
but anyways, good luck.

I'm sitting here now with a Dell pentium 3 800mhz, and I've never had any trouble with it:) Several people I've talked to have recommended Dell laptops. I mostly use a stationary though, so I don't know that much about it..

Do not get a Dell. Mine works ok but every week or so I have a new problem and everyone else that I work with (who has one) says the same. Mind you, they have excellent tech support but I think the quality of their laptops isn't as good as compaq, IBM, or Toshiba.
If I were you, I'd get a Toshiba...

ibm thinkpad t series is definitely the way to go
the best laptop ive ever used, and you can pick up the top of the line one for like $1400 on ebay
try one out, youll never go back |

oh i agree those other laptops are good (ibm, dell, toshiba, sony).... but my compaq is just as good and costs hundreds less (brand new - not on ebay!).... and none of those other computers have a pro-sound soundsystem built-in (like my compaq), only a miniature pathetic speaker if anything at all.... and compaq has great customer svc. & warranty...
my only point here is if product "A" was just as good as product "B", wouldn't you buy the less expensive one?
