2. Well, I use MacBooks, and run Windoze on them when needed.

But, when I did need a Windoze laptop at work, I always used Dells.

They seem to last for me for many years.

I have been very fond of the Latitude series, and have also had Inspirons.

I spec'd a lot of them for the A/V company that I worked for for the Installers and technicians.

They are pretty tough in the field.

I have a pair of Latitudes that are 15 years old, that still run fine under XP that is.

I will say that they are not built quite as well as back then, but still have never killed one.

I cannot say that about my MacBooks. I have had three die on me, and Apple won't do anything about them.

I have not had good luck with HP laptops, though I do own an HP Tower computer, and have spec'd and installed dozens of HP workstations.

Had many trouble with Laptops being used for presentations and A/V stuff. Dell laptops were always very stable.

I have bought several as Dell refurbs or closeouts at the Dell outlet store, and they have all been great, and good as new in all cases.

You can save a few bucks that way.

Good Luck!
