Advantages: Decent Battery life. built with care, won't fall apart any time soon.
Disadvantages: A little hevy for some. Limited customization

...as it sounds, the 15"inch Dell Vostro has to be my pick of the litter. Why you might ask? Because it is a budget laptop with no signs of cheapness. The build is sturdy enough, nothing feels like it is about to snap off, I would go as far as saying that it has been carefully and thoughtfully designed.The keyboard is also magnificient, which has hardly any flex at all. Like all Dell products, this can be customized to have light energy use and large ...
...course you get the usual Dell customer support, which is very good, as long as the person on the other end of the phone can speak English that is. I would love to learn hindi/urdu (really!) but I can't, so I want customer support that I can understand. I did buy this laptop in Britain after all I have the right to expec the same from my customer service. My main problem with the Vostro is that it costs extra to have Xp installed over Vista. I laughed ... Read review

Advantages: Good value, well built, great wireless, everything built in
Disadvantages: None yet

As I previously owned a dell desktop I decided that if I was to get a laptop then I'd consider a dell. I've had the laptop 8 weeks and have yet to find fault. Being new to Vista is the only problem I had. The wireless is fantastic and will connect to virtually anything. The memory capacity and recovery drive are fantastic. The laptop comes complete with everything you need. The controls are easy to use and unlike a lot of laptops the touch pad is ...
...2 weeks decied not to work. I contacted Dell and the next day there was a new one delivered to my door. The features and functions are pretty much the same as every other laptop but the customer service and well built computers is what attracted me back to dell. ... Read review

Advantages: Style, choice of finishes, weight, Dell brand
Disadvantages: Power socket on side,

...1525 to replace my current Dell desktop, an USFF Optiplex SX280. This is partly due to wanting to rid my life of clutter on a desk, and ultimately a desk, so this really will be used on my lap. As a result I have also specced it with the internal mobile broadband 3G/HDSPA card for Vodafone, so that I can access the internet, in theory, from anywhere. Since I am already a Vodafone customer I intend to add 3G use to the account and get rid of my BT ...
...I'm interested to see how well this will work in the real world. Initial impressions of the Inspiron are very good. I have chosen a gloss white finish on the lid, and it looks really smart. Nobody will actually be fooled into thinking it's an MacBook, but I like the simplicity of the colour and also the fact that, unlike the other colour choices available, it was free. Additionally there is no clip on the lid, just a hinge that snaps it shut, not ... Read review

Advantages: may look sleek on the outside, but is rotten inside
Disadvantages: terrible battery life, useless customer care, motherboard collapses in a few months

...the first month. 3 xps dell computers in my family, all three developed problems in the first few months. DO NOT BUY DELL!!! this is just a scam to make people buy computers and then pay a hefty price in dubious warranties. 35 days after the computer was bought,it failed. They refused to replace it because apparently the warranty states that it can be replaced only upto 30 days.. need I say more??! STAY AWAY FROM DELL!! ... Read review

Advantages: Features, size and design
Disadvantages: Not good enough for gaming

...me. As a fan of HP products, I chose from the DV6500 range available at the time. This laptop had every spec I required for both using as a station for university assignments, as well as home use for music, film and gaming. Firstly, the design is eye-catching. I was bored of looking at the generic black or grey and thought the white anti-scratch surface was ideal. The laptop is also quite light and the absense of a locking clip meant there was less ...
...more than my money's worth! HP also frequently offer discounts so it's always worth checking to see what deals are to be had. As well as the remote control that is stored away when not in use, another of my favourite features is the fingerprint reader. When you use the internet on a frequent basis, remembering usernames and passwords can be frustrating. For anyone who hops from website to website, I'd highly recommend this feature. Thankfully I ...
