I would say Dell with an AWESOME 4 year warranty...that way your garanteed to have it at least 4 years ;) . But I dont know if you mean it will still have good performance in 4 years, or you want it to last 4 years. You prob wont get a laptop that will still have good performance in 4 years sept maybe an alienware or voodo, or very high end notebook which are very exspensive. Dell is great....I know from exsperiance.

ok biddawg, what do you reccomend? i want ot have at least 512 ram, 40 gb, cdrw/dvd, and i dont want celeron. also my budget is about 1500

Inspiron 5150 This has a 3.0 Ghz P4!!, 512MB of ram, 40 GB HD, and a CD RW/DVD combo drive. All for 1482. Only a 1 year warranty though, heres one with a slightly slower CPU but better warranty, depending on what you want, this might be better. Dimension 5100. Has the exact same stuff as the one above, except a 2.8Ghz P4, BUT it has a 3 year warranty...cost 1,501. Sorry bout going over a dollar haha

Hmmm ok the links dont take you to the custom ones I put together. Just put 512MB and the CPU i listed and stuff...and you will get a good price.

ok that 2nd one sounds good. im looking for at least 3 year warranty (like the second) and accidental damage (for at least 3 years). i know dell has 4 year warranty.

im looing on hp.com to see how much an amd would cost with their best warranty

mkay now 1646 w/ 100 rebates for....

amd 2500+
xp home
2x256 ddr sdram
60 gb 4200 rpm hdd
microsoft works/money
dvd/cdrw
56k/802.11b lan (wi fi)
15'' tft xga lcd (1024x768)
ati mobility radeon
3 year express warranty/accidental damage

;) -_- not sure if its a good deal, maybe even exensive. but it does have the warranty. that warranty is at least 300. i cant check because my computer is too slow

i got it! the warranty is 349.99

Ok, the 2.8Ghz P4 would whoop the 2500..although I love the the 2500. And Dell is a much better name and every HP laptop I have seen has kinda sucked...clogged with shit and slow and breaks...I would go with the second Dell. Trust me you will love it.

ok. im still saving up money and that will take a while

Alright I see. Thats kinda how I am except i have the money im just waiting till after christmas. Conclusion: buy the Dell with the "slower" CPU 2.8 and get the 3 year warranty. Trust me...you will love it. DONT get the HP
