My brother has a Toshiba and i hate it! It looks good, but everything is in the wrong place. The usb ports are on the left hand side, the power socket is on the right - whats the deal with that?!
My Packard Bell doesnt look as good, but i got it for £50 less than his Toshiba the ports are in a sensible place - power is at the back for example and it seems to run quicker. I had it about 6 months now and no problems whatsoever. The only real gripe i have is that the fan is a noisy little bugger!!

I've always gone for HP and Sony myself.
Great build quality and they've never let me down.
Obviously some of that is down to their spec.

I've had this Compaq laptop since March 2005 and it's been Ultra reliable. The only troubles I've had have been ones I've caused - spilling liquid on the keyboard (easily fixed as replacement parts are readily available) and editing the registry in a misguided attempt to remove spyware.

Good experience with nw Compaq laptop here as well. Almost two years old now and i use it like shit. Still no issues whatsoever. The only minor issue i have noticed is the reduced battery standby time. Btw, hp/compaq, almost the same!

Have been using my Compaq Presario notebook since August 2006 and it's been serving my well till now. I take pretty good care of it and run some maintenance programs on it every now and then. No problems so far, everything works as it should.

I am stuck with Sony for now. Had few Hells and wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Sony seems solid. As for the Toshiba, consider there are many components from them used in many established brands, but lately I heard a few complaints. IMO it is excellent price/quality/performance ratio.

hmmmm me too i don't know who's the tougher and reliable brand when it comes to laptop netbook/notebook.
Maybe i'll go for AsusTEK because playstation 3 uses AsusTEK technology

God this is fairly old this thread of mine. I never got round to buying one in the end. People tell me that HP/Compaq have become worse since joining up. Asus are good i have done alot of research since. But things changed so i never got one. I recently got the HP on T Mobile contract and its crap. Its slow and the screen is washed out with poor resolution. Also video through the dvd drive is jerky.
