Definatly. IBM has the best reputation, but you pay for it. I think the top tier brands are IBM, Toshiba, and Dell in that order. The designer brands like Alienware are probably reliable too but i'm not as familiar with thier track records. Sony's look awesome but I have heard tons of complaints about them.Originally Posted by arjue
It should be different (except some systems that cram desktop components into a laptop case), but it didn't seem any more expensive to me. A 512 MB stick costs about $100 for my Dell, which seems pretty average.also, do laptops use the same sort of ram as desktops? if not, how big of a price difference are we talking about?
For $2000 you should be able to find something to suit your needs easily. A lot of laptops have decent graphics chips these days so gaming isn't as much as a problem as it once was. I have a Dell and i like it a lot, the construction is not as tight and solid as an IBM, but i haven't had any problems. It's been very reliable.
