    Laptop Owners

    What do you consider important? I'm diving into one soon I think. What do you reccomend?

    To me the most important things:

    - Battery Life
    - The ability to disable that touch pad and use a mouse
    - Screen Quality

    Local place has those "E-Machines" 15" wide ones pretty cheap. I was looking at those.

      How the keyboard feels.

      How good the screen appears when you are in extreme lighting conditions.

              E-Machines has the fast laptop on the market with the AMD 64 CPU. They were just acquired by Gateway also.

              They have the best price to value ratio of any on the market.

                  I have no interest in getting a Dell laptop after talking to Dell owners . Lot of bad talk from them.

                    Don't go cheap, get a keyboard you like and one that has the same features as your desktops.

                    I got one in December of last year, and it now functions as my desktop. I hook up an external 19" monitor, wireless keyboard & mouse when im sitting at my desk, then unhook it and im on my way with the laptop. It's nice, but keep in mind it will be slower than a comparable desktop.

                      Glad to hear some good news about them. I had not heard of this company before.

                        Any reason for this? Or just a blanket statement..

                          You know, you have me thinking here.

                          I had an old thinkpad long ago that I LOVED but sold and perhaps I should be looking at the IBM ones again. Little more cost but perhaps happier overall.

                                  The apple laptops look fantastic, however all the software I own is PC and I don't fancy purchasing all my Adobe Products, etc. again .

                                          i have a toshiba satellite and that's what i do with it, i use an external trackball and regular pc keyboard when at home and just unhook them when i want to go mobile.

                                          ps2 to usb adaptors are cheap, $20 or so - an inexpensive alternative to wireless.

                                          saves my laptop's keyboard and touchpad from abuse and keeps everything looking like brand new.

                                              I went all out with my laptop. Pretty much has replaced my desktop and I can travel with it. I got a Sager 8890 and it was close to $3000 but well worth the money.

                                              I would stay away from emachine for sure. They are cheap for a reason.

                                                  power, battery life, resolution, screen quality and also how long it will take before it's obsolete

                                                  a few years ago I spent 3.5k on a laptop cuz I wanted the best and I'm still using it and it still runs almost everything I need to run fairly fast....


                                                  I don't like lightweight pieces of shit that aren't durable either


                                                  I got a Dell Inspiron and I am happy.....

                                                    To me the most important things:

                                                    - Battery Life
                                                    - The ability to disable that touch pad and use a mouse
                                                    - Screen Quality

                                                    Local place has those "E-Machines" 15" wide ones pretty cheap. I was looking at those.
                                                    Don't let price be the deciding factor when buying a laptop, battery life should be something to consider, if its a halfway decent machine, you should be able to use a mouse seperatly, and yes, consider how the applications you use look on various screens.

                                                    Another thing to consider is the weight of this as you will be lugging this all over the far corners of the planet.

                                                    When it comes to laptops, I have owned them all, when it comes down to it, the IBM Thinkpads are the best way to go when going with the Windoze/Linux operating system.

                                                    Their keyboards are like silk, the screen is easy to read, and their repair policy is A1, if you want something cool, light and sexy, I'd check out the Thinkpad T41
                                                    Money NEVER $leep$...

                                                      I guess another thing to consider is upgradeability... can you add a bigger HD or an additional one? can you add a lot more memory? etc.
