Well... i'll be looking for a new laptop for college, i dont want to spent over $1k on it. i dont know much about computers, and i was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of whats the best bang for the buck. i want something reliable, and that will last awhile and i'll be happy with lol. i dont really play video games, but i do want something that can handle the multimedia/internet, but something i can also use for school. if this doesnt make sense lmk, im kinda in a rush atm smile.gif

i havent looked into macs yet, i thought they were closer to $2k, and i heard that if i have a problem with it, its hard to find someone who knows how to fix it or something.

are you serious about dells though, i thought they were decent, but again i don't know much.

thanks for the replies keep them coming, any specific models you like. i suppose if it would last longer and i be happier i can look into spending a LITTLE over $1k.

depends on the line of macs u want. the macbook is the cheapest of all the mac computers and are just as good really. powerbooks cost around he 2,000 dollar mark but macs cost about half that. best bang for your buck.

the only major complaint i have about macs is their battery life and the batteries overheat and get really hot.
