There are many... I use an IBM Thinkpad. I have heard of good preview about Apple laptops but be aware of the compatibility issue with Windows software.\n\nDells are another good machines.\n\nHope this helps.

For anyone looking for a monster laptop without extreme pricing, I'd suggest www.xoticpc.com\n\nYou can customize a very powerful machine and less cost than alot of the competition.  When they start putting out dual core machines running Vista, I'll be buying from them.

Well, the BEST laptops don't come from Dell, IBM or HP - they come from a company called Alienware.  And their BEST model is the Aurora m7700, which is probably more then you would ever need.\n\nhttp://www.alienware.com/configurator_pages/aurora_m7700.aspx?SysCode=PC-LT-AURORA-M-7700&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT

Dell... It's the best quality

honestly, none. i would go with a MAC. those are the best if all you want to do is browse internet, playgames, or do anything graphic. if not then i would go with the HP, i find that HP is more reliable then compaq or toshiba. toshiba would be my second choice, and i would rather not have a computer then have a compaq.

best bet at a price of under £650 is the Dell Inspiron 6400\nhttp://www1.euro.dell.com/content/products/features.aspx/inspn_6400?c=uk&cs=ukdhs1&l=en&s=dhs

A very very good notebook guide can be downloaded here:\nhttp://www.download.com/3000-2056-10225869.html\n\nAlthough you just need it for internet use and word processing, many websites employ heavy graphics.. you need fairly good specs anyway. Pentium III or Celeron (CPU clock - 1 GHz) and RAM of 512MB would do. \n\nAcer and Dell have good offerings on their websites. I found some on Amazon.com as well.\n\nDont forget to test for dead spot on LCD screens, check for Harddisk errors, and so on.\n\nPS:\nI found one here:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00080QGD2/sr=1-1/qid=1138758887

Dell outlet is fine (http://outlet.dell.com) - I purchased my current laptop through their outlet and am very happy with it.  \n\nI would suggest a Dell Dimension with a decent video card and amount of ram.  For vid pretty much anything Nvidia should be good and try to get at least 1 gigabye of ram. Gaming takes quite a bit more horsepower than web browsing and messaging.

Depends on your needs, actually. My vote goes for IBM T43 (I trust the brand, it's light, and I've used a T42 for a while) or a Dell Latitude D810 (better graphics card, slightly cheaper; my office has 3 of them and they've not failed yet).

If you want a PC laptop, the best choise is Acer! \nBut Apple is the best on the music and other staffs!(If u can use macOS)

Are you talking desktop or laptop?\n\nI'm very happy with my Dell laptop.  For a desktop I think you could get something very good quality that wouldn't be as expensive as a Dell.

I like the Dell Latitude D-420.  It weighs 3 Lbs and has a 12" screen.

It would depend on its intended use... If you're doing graphic design, somethjing like the 30 inch Apple Cinema Display is going to provide real benefits over a 17" model. If the height of your computer use is surfing the web, a browser is going to look really strange maximised over 30", and a smaller monitor will be optimal.\n\nThe other consideration is cost - bigger may be better, but it's also more expensive. The money you'd put on a bigger monitor could be used to enhance your computer use some other way - a better digital camera, a larger hard drive, or  maybe just spending the cash on a few slap-up meals.

DELL & HP is always a good brand to select and make sure it has microsoft on it! If you need to have a look at some reviews on various laptops go to http://www.cnet.com/\n\nalthough, Lenovo 3000 N100 (Core Duo 2GHz, 512MB RAM, 100GB HDD) is a great laptop at a middle of the range price ($1364) and delivers excellent preformance! \n\nHowever if you are looking at a more cheaper laptop then the Lenovo 3000 N100 (Core Duo 1.66GHz, 512MB RAM, 80GB HDD, DVD Writer) is what you need at a cheap price of anywhere from $800 to $1000. This laptop may be cheap but its preformance still packs a puch and would be perfect for someone just starting University or a Small Business owner!\n\nGOODLUCK WITH UNIVERSITY AND BUYING A NEW LAPTOP, I HOPE THIS INFORMATION WAS USEFUL FOR YOU :):):) AGAIN GOODLUCK!
