Dell laptops dont last. I worked for a company that bought thousands of them for employees. It got so bad that dell had someone in our company to keep fixing them. They went to IBM and have been happy ever since.

If you want stylish, light, and battery life, you can't go past an asus.
I just went through the process of buying for one. They kick ass over any other option - and i went over Apple, Dell, IBM, Toshiba, Compaq/HP, Alienware, Sony.

I have a laptop w/ DVD Burner / wifi / bluetooth / 1280x768 / usb / firewire / memory card reader (v. cool) / lan / TV out / svideo out / 80gb hdd / 750mb ram / INBUILT wireless logitech mouse / inbuilt 1.3MP webcam / camera / mic / up to 7 hours battery

weighs only 1.6KG, and less than an inch thick.
Amazing.

I've been using Dell's for over 12 years and never had one die on me. I haul them everywhere I go without a problem. Now that IBMs are supposedly being made in China, I'd be worried about declining quality.

I have a new Toshiba and it sucks gonads. I used to be Sony and IBM - when my Sony broke the power connector, I needed to buy something on the spot. Toshiba had the best value for the money but I would not get it again. I'd go back to Sony or IBM. Sony is the coolest and has the best features and is a lot cheaper than the IBM but Sony makes laptops with poor durability. Nonetheless they are the coolest.

Also I really don't like the widescreen. It's hard to fit all you need on the screen with a screwed up aspect ratio.

I like Sony Vaio's but have to admit my ancient Toshiba Satellite although now redundant was very very reliable for a long time.

We had a Toshiba, and the screen messed up (went black). We took it back, and swapped it for another, and had them open the package at the counter to make sure it was ok. It was messed up, too. The screen had a line through it and kept changing colors. We ended up getting a Sony Vaio and haven't had a single problem since.
