In the last 14 months, I've had 3 laptops.. First two were HPs (one screen broke - didn't cover it in their warranty and the other the motherboard corroded -sp?- and that should have been covered but they wanted me to pay $800 to replace so I said no, I'm done with you guys).. The laptop I'm on now is an Acer Aspire and I hate it! I bought it after the 2nd HP be/c I was in a crunch, needed a 17" with a full keyboard. The sound on this thing is absolutely horrible! I can't even hear DVDs playing with head phones on! I don't know how their customer service is because I've not had a problem so far..
Well, after attempting to watch DVDs on here, I gave up!! I bought a Dell 17" Notebook.. The Inspiron 1721... I got it with 2.2GHz, 3GB of memory, webcam, flamingo pink in color, etc etc with a 3yr accidental/hardware warranty for $1500. I specifically asked them about the girls or my kitty peeing on the keyboard (hasn't happened but its my biggest fear!) and they cover it and any screen damage or drops.. So I feel safe..
Has anyone had a Dell? I'm thinking of buying the wireless All-In-One printer by the end of January to go with it.. I absolutely need a fax machine and printer but my DSL box is not on my floor and I don't want to drill holes through the floors and walls to hook it up... Anyone have a wireless printer?
Sorry this is so long.. I'm just hoping this is THE last laptop I have to buy for a LONG time! I've dropped $3500 on laptops since I started college!
(and I'm only going into my 4th semester!!)
