If you're looking for a reasonable priced laptops to do reasonable things (ie nonspecialized) I recommend Asus. They are the parts manufacturer for most companies so you are cutting out the middle man and getting a laptop directly made by the people who know how their parts are meant to work. I have been through 3 of them. The first two were wonderful but I spilled water on one and punched the other one (nothing wrong with the laptop. I just have anger issues). I fucking hate the one I have right now but I think that's a function of windows 8 more than the machine itself. The machine itself runs fine...
But overall I'm getting real sick of windows and would recommend you switch to mac. Infinitely less buggy, more consistent in terms of function and layout, durable, don't get outdated as quickly, etc. They're more expensive but I wish I would have sucked it up and forked over the extra cash when I had the chance.

Aww... it's cute! How quaint lol.
The Alienware m11x that got stolen from me earlier this year was cheaper than that one appears to be online and had equal or better specs all around.
A used Asus G73 would also torch that laptop for the same price, tops.
You do know Patlal said some gaming is going to be a consideration, right?
You do know that he said 'small games' and 'average graphics', right? You also did read that I clearly stated that I don't push the graphics, which is why I commented? Also, that he has considered a tablet, overall a pathetic entry int the computer market, right? And you do know that this constant hard-on you seem to have in this thread and the other one you started about owning an Alienware laptop is fairly juvenile, right?
And not to mention that buying a secondhand, used computer is like marrying a street prostitute, RIGHT?
He said for 5 years though. 'average graphics'-capable cards now are going to be stripped for silicon in 2-3 years.
And yeah, if Angelina Jolie was a street prostitute

Ewww, she's so skanky & dirty. I wonder if she uses Alienware, and how this ties in with your relentless endorsement campaign for the Dell corporation.... she actually resembles the creature from the Alien movie, so we may be onto something
