I have had good luck with Dells in the last few years. Their 7500 model (my first one) was a total disaster. They have learned from their mistakes.
I agree with the previous person. Avoid laptops if you can. The larger size ones have more air circulation and fail less frequently.
Only use a laptop if you need portability or are short of space on your desk.

| Its true said by Flatulent that "Only use a laptop if you need portability or are short of space on your desk" . You can just go for any brand. See your requirements, and compare the same with the configuration and performance you expect from a laptop. Once you buy one never expect any company to give the service you expect. Every company will have its own marketing stratergies and all will aim to sell more rather than to service old ones. Every company will have a regular quarrels and querrys from most of its customers in respect of various issues. Use the one you buy carefully for 3 years, calculate the depreciation, and your Laptop will be free at that time. Be ready to throw it in the trash once you get any major problems with it.

I hate desktops and their keyboards from the time I started using them...
1 year ago changed 5th laptop,not because of the failures, it was just upgrade. Had Sony Vaio, HP, Asus and Dell. A year ago purchased DELL and returned it 2 weeks later... it was "not mine" from the very beginning (keyboard, look and feel...). The next and the last was Lenovo T61 with 14". It's productive, solid, quiet, has a scratch resistant surface, comes with 3-years standard warranty and, unlike other brands, supports Linux (as a native system).
to flatulent
desktops fail more often, without doubt!
I had been working as a service center engineer for 3 years and our service room was always full of desktops. The situation with laptops was completely opposite. However, their weak point is CD/DVD drive, that fails quite often.

For the last 10 years, I have exclusivly used laptops. I am using one know. I dock when at work. So I strongly recomend a docking station. I also use a second monitor, so I get two monitors for the price of one.
Recommend:
docking station,
external mouse and keyboard,
2nd monitor
Internal wifi.
Internal blue tooth.
As for brands, I always use a Dell. I once plugged in a USB connector to a Dell laptop that had a 240VAC ground differential. After putting out the fire on the mother board, I called Dell. (They told me to reboot!) The tech then sent me another laptop and I had it the next day. I copied HDD over then sent back the burnt unit. No charge and no down time.
Hope this helps.

config should be
160 Gb hard disk
1 Gb RAM
processor should be intel or AMDA but advaced intel processors are prifreble bcoz as i m having AMDA 64 turioun then they suffered from heat sinking problem..so go for intel (rugged one)

1. Bluetooth
2. 802.11 a/b/c WLAN
3. web cam
4. bulit in audio sensor
5. finger print recognization
