    I'm not sure what people are saying about hp having problems. I own an HP myself. In fact, I'm using it right now, and I have never had any problems with the laptop itself. It's a very nice set-up, and isn't very bulky. I am using an older model. I've had an HP Pavilion ze4500 since 2003, and it has never given us any problems. HP is supposed to have excellent customer service, so even if it did have problems, it could be taken care of well and efficiently. Apparently Dell doesn't have very good customer service. At least not as good as HP. That's just me though. If you have to make a choice, I would definitely choose an HP. Hope you enjoy your laptop either way.

    Thanks to Samus-Fan for the sweet signature picture!

    Hewlett Packard!

    My first real computer (meaning computer i had full control over without having to ask my parents to use it) was a HP Intel Celeron processor - it lasted almost 10 years! I got another HP after that and its been going for almost 5 years now - its my sister's pc now

    and now that I can build my own computers unlike when I was 5 years old, i don't have to go for these premade PCs lol - but im not a huge fan of dell - i just fixed a dell inspiron laptop last week - its ALRIGHT but not a fan

    I'm using an hp laptop, and have had no problems with it for the most part.
    (not problems with the actual pc, i mean)
    My dell desktop computer recently broke down though.
    no idea why.

    Buy the your own parts and put it together yourself..you'll get more bang for your buck.

    Custom build > any pre-made factory PC minus customer support.

    lol ok..where? i could build the thing for you in my home and deliver it to you or you can even come by and pick it up - and I'd prefer to work at home rather than go over since i know where everything I need at home is

    but it really depends on the situation on when you want it and how you want it and what you want in it and when I am available - lots of variables here
