I have bought the Medion laptop from woolworths.

This is a very good machine with a brilliant Widescreen. It runs everything I need no problem and the wireless internet connection is a breeze.

The only thing is the sound quality isnt that good (as with all laptops) however it runs very well through my Pc speakers.

Hope this helps.

Almost everyone I know has either a Dell or an IBM. Neither are cheap but both are (usually) reliable.

Iv heard nothing but good things about 'Acer' laptops. a wee bit more expensive than dell but far better in reliability.

I've had an Acer for about 5 years and its been great and is still going strong, it also has a very good display even by todays standards. Got a Dell recently through work and its great, very good wireless connection on it. Have used various other makes at work and the best was probably a Compaq.

All depends on your Price range and what you intend using it for.

HP or Asus for your laptops, HP for build quality and Asus for price.

Honestly do not look anywhere else, Asus currently have a 64bit machine, Widescreen, 512 RAM and 60gb HDD for under £700, bargain.
