IMHO, as a person with a lot of tech background, I usually suggest Toshiba. I have had the least amount of trouble from them, and their batteries usually hold out exactly as the specs show. They are good work-horses and hold up for constant travel.

As for HP, they look cool and usually have some nice options, but their power adapter port usually busts on you. I travel a lot, and I do a lot of plugging and unplugging the cord from the laptop. My experience has shown me that their ports tend to not hold up to wear and tear. If you plan on leaving it on a desk all the time, go for it, otherwise be warned.

The only reason to get an Acer is if you are really concerned about cost. If you want some cheap laptops, go for Acer, but if you want something reliable and going to work for you...get a Toshiba.

Thats my 2 cents.
