Hello guys. I'd like a bit of help from you hardware experts. :)
Basically I'm going to buy a new laptop, and I'm clueless as to which brand is the best. Here's what I want:
I've seen quite a few brands having a few laptops corresponding to the above, mostly Acer, HP, Toshiba, and Dell (ugh). My problem is: which of these, or other, brands should I trust the most, especially in terms of reliability? Also please shed a light on the Core2Duo vs. X2 Ultra dilemma.
Thanks.
Basically I'm going to buy a new laptop, and I'm clueless as to which brand is the best. Here's what I want:
- A laptop that doesn't give me trouble for as long as possible.
- Ideally a 15.4 inch screen. Larger would be too large, and smaller would be too small.
- Intel Core2Duo processor or an AMD Turion X2 Ultra... please help be choose between the two.
- Windows 7. No Vista shit, please.
- DVD burning capabilities
- At least 2GB memory
- Not fussy about hard disk space, but let's say a minimum of 160GB
- Not fussy about battery consumption
- Not too fussy about portability, but I don't want something weighing a ton if I use my laptop elsewhere in a pinch.
- Not too fussy about price... but I don't need more than I mention above.
