I forgot IBM. I'm not convinced any of them are any better than the rest. My company with 7000+ PCs tested Dell, IBM, Compaq, and HP Last year and to be honest, they are all pretty damn similar. At this point from those major vendors, we consider them a commodity, and will hold up our current vendor, Dell to competitive pricing every 6 months, or they lose the business.

And paying $1200 for a notebook that is going to be just about as out of date in 3 years as the $500 one doesn't make sense for a home user.

Unless you want a game system, go cheap IMHO.
