The post that was quoted here has been removedAlso NEVER buy a second hand laptop.
Mine died recently, I am using my gf's now. I understand why they sold me that piece of crap.
I am also wondering if Macs are any better. One of my friend was telling me last night that they do not get viruses?! and they are built on better hardware.
Is that true?
I do not have a lot of money but if it will last me for a good 3-5 years I can pay up to $2000.

Any macbook will do, a little on the pricy side, but they last forever, and do not get viruses unless you try to get them, no pop-blocker installation required, faster internet service...

The customer service was flawless.
Which braand should I go into?
Definitely not DELL.
