(Model numbers please as I am looking to buy.)

Model numbers are not significant, since any that people have owned for a few months are not available any more.
I have customers with various models. Here are the results:
Dell Inspiron - sent back for service twice, still no good.
HP - (wide screen model) hard drive crapped out after 2 months, has been fine since
HP - (super wide screen model) Had lots of crazy problems at startup. But we removed Norton Internet Security and replaced with other software, and worked fine since.
Toshiba - LOVE it
Dell - simply quit working after 3 years. Replaced it with a Toshiba wide screen... AWESOME
I send my friends and customers to Costco to look at the selection of Toshiba. Price is good, and everything is easily returned.

I have a Toshiba laptop, uh where do find the model no.? Is it SKU: 100004504 or the TAG Number 617579966. I'm new at this that why I call myself Stupid in Canada. I'm learning. Cant even figure out how to put a Avatar picture in. Anyways, it was in the middle of the price ranges and everyone who sees it says it great. Big Screen. Wish me luck.

Absolutely. I got a 12" Apple PowerBook and I couldn't be happier. I haven't had a single problem with it. They don't make the PowerBook any longer, but the MacBook would be a great model to look into.

people are going to have diffferent opinions about what is acceptable but the basics to look for imo are a fast harddrive - at least 5400rpm, a clear and bright display, widescreen looks cool on the retail shelf but it sucks in practicality...a regular size screen is better imo...1gig of ram is about ryt for todays world...any modern book will have fast enough ddr ram so dont make a fuss over ram speed. processor #s' are blown way out of proportion as far as importance unless ur going to be doing processor intensive things like video processing or highend gaming...most processors in modern books are fine...the really BIG thing to me is battery life..i travel alot so battery life really aggravates me with my current book which gets 2-3 hours...if the battery life is lower on the machine you pick at least invest in an extra one. cute little media control buttons are trivial on a notebook but add to the cool factor i guess, keyboard layout and mouse functionality are a big thing so find one that you like, it should have a multiformat burner...theyre cheap these days so theres no reason to settle for a low performance cd burner/dvd reader that wont even burn a dvd...and finally theres the video...if you dont game dont pay extra for it coz it can get real expensive based on video performance..ive even seen a sager notebook for about 4Gs' that has sli7800gtx ! gotta love it but not practical imo. oh, almost forgot the software bundle...you can pay way too much for a notebook based on the software it has that you might not even use...bottom line is its best to go with a vendor that lets you configure it just how you want it and order it...save a bundle and get good performance.

Nope got a HP (sorry don't know the model number). I just hate how you can't upgrade it or do any really cool stuff with it!!!

Apple MacBook Pro. Runs super hot and is expensive. Avoid it unless your occupation requires an Apple.

LOVE my Dell.
Latitude C400. This one is three years old, runs perfectly and has never had a single problem.
They have newer better versions now..
Good Luck!
