Love Your Laptop?
I am looking to purchase a new laptop...mine has a cracked screen. I have a Dell but I think I would like to buy something different this time around. Anyone have a laptop that they would recommend (or not recommend) Thanks!

My hubby LOVES his Macbook!! As do my dad and brother!! Can't go wrong with a Mac, plus if you have a program that requires Windows, there are many programs out there that allow you to run a virtual machine in order to run Windows at the same time as Mac OS. We use VMWare Fusion and it is AWESOME!!!!

I had a Dell laptop and replaced it about a year ago. I liked the Dell but this time I opted for a HP DV 2500 mine is a Special Edition (whatever that means), but I LOVE it! Purchased it at Best Buy and have had no issues at all. It is a great laptop!

I LOVE my Macbook. So easy to use and it has never crashed, or been infected by a virus.

I have a Dell XPS M1210 loaded and I LOVE it. I've had it about 3 yrs, it has never given me a problem. It is very lightweight, small screen and I can't say enough good about it.
My husband and daughter have Dell Latitudes and Love them.
We got the larger Latitude for daughter because we felt like it would be a little more sturdy for a teen. We've had no problems with any of them. My Dell and daughter's Dell are both Vista programs and no issues with that either.
We bought all the Dell laptops through the Dell website.
Before my Dell, I had an HP Pavillion which was also very good. I did have some battery issues with it but Best Buy was great for customer service. We bought it there with the warranty.
Good luck!

I have a Dell Vostro (which is in the small business section) and LOVE IT. I bought this model because it was one of the few left that you could get that had XP (needed for my job) and it has been a true work horse! I've used it several hours ever day for 18 months and have no problems with it. I've also had some really good experience with the Dell Customer Service on some other products I bought through them.
I would warn against anything from Best Buy. They send their computers out of the store for servicing and it takes 2-3 weeks to get them back (BFF had this experience). With the package I bought from Dell I will have mine back in less than a week guaranteed (that's sending, servicing, and mail time included). Since I work off of mine, I couldn't do anything else.
