Which one could be the best buy?
-
I'm planning to buy a laptop. As I haven't owned a laptop before, would like to know the best laptop to buy with following criteria's in mind: 1. Main target is to do programming with Microsoft Technologies (VS2008/21010, SQL Server etc..) 2. Less than or equal $670 3. Better performance 4. Flexible to upgrade 6. Doesn't matter on Size and weight ( :) i am healthy enough to carry) 7. Doesn't matter on maintainence and support (As i am buying from US, but not belong to US)

So you need lots of memory and a seriously fast HD, preferably solid state.

Ok forget the harddrive, and add the memory yourself after buying it.

See number 1.

Are you sure you want a laptop?

I've heard that one before, heavy laptops tend to be stationary, really, they do!

If you're buying a brand laptop you'll get the support worldwide whether you want it or not.

No one has ever been sacked for buying IBM, or so they say. Our Organisation owns 13 Laptops. 3 of those are Second Hand IBM's. When it comes to Support and Standard of Mechanical design, IBM wins Everytime. :) :)

Age and brain fade prevented me from finding this name in my memory :((
Google for online discount codes. I saved 20%+ on my Lenovo laptop doing that 2 years ago. As long as you don't care about "voiding the warranty", you should upgrade memory and the hard drive yourself. Many manufacturers charge 100+% of the new part price to upgrade a component that might be a 10 minute install.
