That's a very open ended question. Try to provide information such as -

1. Your budget
2. Primary use
3. Brand, Screen-size etc. preferences
4. Everything you think that might help us make you a choice.

Nice To Search For A Suggestion

I Prefer You Go For Dell Vostro 1400 Which Comes With All The Features You Need With Core2duo Or May Be Centrino-duo With Pre Installed Vista Home Basic.i Own A Compac V3033 Au, But I Dont Suggest You To Go For That. But If You Are In Cities Like Banglore Or Delhi Go For Dell, Else Go For Hp Laptop(service Point Of View) With Core2duo Which Can Fulfill All What An Eee Engg. Student Needs Till He Leaves His Profession.

If you want a piece of art that can do anything not caring about money go with Apple with some VMware to install Windows

Something cheapy but very nice HP & Acer new models. But you'll find them shipped with Vista remove it & install XP or your favourite OS, because Vista just eats resources.

Something crappy Dell. As Steve Jobs said "Uninnovative peige boxes" and really they are.

In my home me and my family have one Macbook & 2 Acer Tablet & Notebook & one HP.

Go with HP and Acer if you want recommends about specific models just ask.

If you want a gaming machine, go buy a desktop ... customize it yourself, assemble it yourself to fully appreciate and understand the machine.

Then please answer Biggies questions

If you are confused, and can afford it .. go for Dell Vostro .. if you think its overpriced, then go for HP. Simple.
