I hope this is the correct forum. I am looking for some advice on what laptop to get. My work is paying for it and the budget should be about £1500. At the moment I had a Dell Inspiron 9200 (the 17" model) but the first one I got gave me electric shock and the replacement had a faulty motherboard so I am getting a refund from them and going with another laptop. It will be used for work so word, powerpoint, excel, visio - general office stuff, network admin work all the usual crap. FM 2005 will be an essential daily tool. I want a laptop that has a native display greater than 1024 by 768 and widescreen would be great but not essential. So what would you recommend? I have been thinking about the Sony VAIO S2HP but the specs seem a bit crap.
I hate Sony laptops, too much proprietary garbage that you don't need or want. Plus, the way they install the operating system makes it unstable down the road. I would highly recommend Sager Notebook. They're reliable, priced right and they perform extremely well.
Thanks for the reply mate but unfortunately as its my work paying for it I have to get it from our suppliers and they only stock: • HP • Acer • Toshiba • IBM • Fujitsu-Siemens • Sony • Averatec • BenQ • JVC • NEC • Panasonic • Samsung Or I can go for a Dell laptop but I don't really want another Dell. So out of that lot what would be the best option? Stu
Sony is junk--for sure I agree with PADRE on this one. Avoid SONY art all costs. I like either HP or better yet Macbook Pro I'm going Apple later this year. If you can't afford and APPLE get a used IBM 42 or 43 to tide you over until you can afford an APPLE.
don't write off dell too soon. with your budget dell xps m1710 or m1530 with high specs would be a perfect choice.
