Looking to get a laptop

I'm looking to purchase a new laptop, what would you guys recommend? It's for alot of things from gaming, browsing, schoolwork, and other stuff. My max ammount of $$ for it is $3500 w/ shipping. I will be using it on both wireless and non wireless networks, and will also use an external harddrive. I would shop for one my self, but looking for others peoples input

i'm on a dell inspiron 1100 right now and its sweet. Pentium4, winXP,2.4GHZ ,500meg ram, 40 gig hard drive. and it runs fast amd smooth with my cable modem. i say go dell.

DELL... red flag... those guys dont know ram from cpu they use shit components and cant diagnose a problem if their life depended on it

Ok no those comps are a waist of money I can build a better comp for half the price. The best cost effective way is to go with the DELL laptops, plus they provide you with the support you need. You can custom build them on the web page and mix and match what you want. Any heavy gamer knows the best way to go is with a desktop. Alienware comps are good but way to over priced. TechTV did a whole special on alienware vs dell and they were neck in neck for performance.

yeah but dell cant give support for crap, and they may perform the same in the beginning, but just give it 6 months and dell performs like shit. trust me on this one dude, i know what i'm talking about from more experiences in this town than anyone

Desktop sorry dude

Heh- sorry, thought you meant building a laptop because this guy wants to get a laptop.

Desktops are still fun to build. :iceslolan

I've had a Dell desktop for 3 years already and it still performs great. Just my :2cents:.

Dell are great, especially the aftersales packages.
