Hey Everyone :) I'm Kate and a level 2 mod on here. I've had this account since July 2004, so I've been on here since I was 13! Wow ... crazy for me to think how long ago that was. I will admit I don't check in as often as I once did, but being away at college, being in a sorority, and having a job when I'm not at school is very time consuming. I still try to help out as much as possible, and if you send me a question I WILL answer it. This site helped me a LOT when I was in high school and had a lot of questions, and I'm here to help anyone who needs it :) Feel free to write in my forum or send me a question any time!

Hi, I hav a Compaq laptop. The company isn't around anymore, and my laptop is currently "snapping in two" slowly. this happened to my friend too, and she had the same one as me.

I am currently trying to save up for another laptop, so I was wondering what laptops are good. I'm looking for a durable, widescreen one. But, just brand names will work too.

Thanks SOO much! my life is in my comp.

I have a Dell & it's working really fine for me. I bought it through my school, but you can get them online, too.

Also, a lot of my friends have Macs & they are supposed to be amazing. Also, they told me that the printer comes free (whereas I bought mine seperately).

Apples are supposed to be AMAZING! But they're also really expensive.

My laptop cost me just under $1500, so it also depends on what your price range is.

Because asking the same question more than once is against the rules, I can't suggest asking this question to Theymos (a technology whiz, it seems), but if you have any specific laptop questions, I'd go to his column.

Maybe go straight to him & ask which laptops he likes the best & why... what's so great about them, etc. That way you can get insight into more than one.
A lot of times, if you go to electronic stores, you can find a sales associate to give you their honest opinion on the merchandise... even if you're just looking at the moment.
Also, if you look to buy online, a lot of sites will give customer reviews on the products. Those help a whole lot more than you could ever imagine!
Good luck with your laptop search. If you have any specific questions about mine, feel free to ask. Otherwise I'd suggest going to Theymos for any computer and/or technology questions. He's great with those.
