Default Suggestions for Laptop

I need to buy a laptop for $1200 that I can take on business trips. I need my laptop to be very easy to use and very up front. If anyone could suggest a dell or something that would be great. Thanks!

Maybe thinkpads which are made from lenovo now which was before IBM might be good for you.

The only thing is the price might be really close to your budget depending on what you choose.

Dell sells some pretty good laptops.http://www.dell.com/content/products...=19&l=en&s=dhs
Pretty much any of there laptops they sell there would be good for you. Just remember to buy extra batterys for when your on your trips.

I have many friends who have had problems with their Dells. It just seems as though there are frequent hardware failures, so I'm advising against getting a Dell. If you want good, reliable hardware, HP is the way to go, IMO.

As far as ease of use, they will all be the same assuming you get windows. Get a Lenovo 3000 N100, cheap and great spex... you wont be disappointed.

I would get Dell, they make excellent Dell products. My Dad's company runs soley on Dell products, that includes Desktop PC's, Servers, and laptops and he has not had a problem since.
