HP Store Online

Which of these laptops should I purchase?

I got a BestBuy giftcard and so am looking to buy a new laptop. Theres a sale going on and I was looking into three of these computers. I'm told HP is the most reputable brand with some doubts about Dell but am also told the Toshiba Satellite is good. I mostly look for quality and dependability (Something that WILL last. Not something rigged to die after the warranty expires). Here are my four choices: HP: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Laptop+/+AMD+Turion%26%23153;+II+Processor+/+14%22+Display+/+3GB++Memory+/+320GB+Hard+Drive+-+Biscotti/1623912.p?skuId=1623912&id=1218273846151 Dell: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dell+-+Inspiron+Laptop+/+AMD+Athlon%26%23153;+II+Processor+/+15.6%22+Display+/+3GB+Memory+/+320GB+Hard+Drive+-+Black/1179872.p?id=1218231017163&skuId=1179872 Toshiba: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Toshiba+-+Satellite+Laptop+/+Intel%26%23174;+Celeron%26%23174;+Processor+/+15.6%22+Display+/+2GB+Memory+/+250GB+Hard+Drive+-+Black/1261751.p?id=1218244146938&skuId=1261751 Gateway: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Gateway+-+Laptop+/+AMD+Turion%26%23153%3B+II+X2+Processor+/+15.6%22+Display+/+4GB+Memory+/+500+GB+Hard+Drive+-+Velvet+Blue/1250655.p?id=1218242897223&skuId=1250655 Name one or two and tell me why? Thanks!

  1. Go with either HP or Dell, they are the better of the 4. And between those 2, HP. I have one and am extremely pleased with it.
  2. I bought an HP notebook 3 weeks ago after going through those sites and a few more. HP had the best price and the site made it the easiest to configure the features. I ended up getting the hp dv7-4183cl at Costco for $900. HP.com with the same features would have been $1250.
  3. dell or toshiba stay far away from HP with windows 7 because i've only had mine for like 2 days and its already pissing me off. it disconnects from facebook and the internet like all the time and there's no way of fixing it. i tried googling it and apparently it's a huge issue with windows 7. and to be plainly honest i really don't use the dual screen thing. i think its easier to keep tabs.
  4. I would suggest to buy Toshiba Satellite L655-S5117 15.6-Inch LED Laptop Intel® CoreTM i3-370M processor, 4GB DDR3 memory, Multiformat DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with double-layer support 15.6" LED-backlit TFT high-definition widescreen display, Intel® Wireless Display, 320GB Serial ATA hard drive (5400 rpm) Mobile Intel® HD graphics, Built-in webcam and microphone, Multiformat media reader, 3 high-speed USB 2.0 ports, Built-in Intel® wireless LAN (802.11b/g/n), Built-in 10/100 Ethernet LAN, Weighs only 5.5 lbs. and measures just 1.5" thin Fusion finish in helios black, Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64-bit operating system preinstalled, http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=laptops&x=0&y=0&tag=klnprk22-20
