I bought a reconditioned Dell Inspiron 8100 about 3 and half years ago and it has been the most trouble free computer/laptop I've ever had. In the same time period I've went through 3 laptops at work and none were a Dell. I had a couple of problems with my Dell when I first bought it but Dell's customer service department was wonderful to deal with. I would highly recommend Dell products if you looking for a computer. Also, look into their reconditioned laptops. You may be able to find a better deal there.

When I start searching for another computer I'll definitely be looking at another Dell replacement.

You couldnt give me a Dell - Ive had 3 - all junk. HP has served me quite well.

Get a hold of a Consumer Reports and see how they rate them and then do some research on your own. You can get a bad computer from anyone but it all depends on how much you want to spend. I manage our IT department at work and we've had good luck with the IBM Think Pads. I run that at work and Dell at home. We lease all of our computers at work so we swap them out every 2-3 years.

All you need to do is go to www.cnet.com and check any kind of electronics out there. They have reviews on almost any consumer electronic device available. I don't buy anything unless they have approved it.

Dell has been screwing me on their customer service, reported computer broken a month before warranty ran out, they did not fix and are now trying to claim I no longer have a warranty. Screw them and their India service center.
