the mediore spec MBP i bought in 2011... not once has it given me problems. between 2011 and now, ive gone through 5 pc laptops (all brand new). wtf is going on here?

so you see why i dont like pc's. the thinkpad is okay though. it's been stable so far... like a mac.

I've had this Toshiba laptop for about 3yrs now, no problems yet.

If it breaks, I'll just buy a new one. It was only $400 or so.

All I need it for is internet, minor photoshop, and iTunes.

my work provides the laptops, but these aren't the low-end cheap ones. the ones im running are like $2K.

at the end, i just told the it guy to get me a i5 based thinkpad cause that's wat my wife uses and she seems to be happy with it. saved the guy like $500 right there and most of the instability problems i had before were resolved.

the rest is a ms issue, but win7 on the thinkpad has not been bad.

im not a computer person...i dont care wat it is, it just has to let me concentrate on my work and

here.

My dell laptop was purchased May 2007, survived 3 years of college and traveling with it, and I still use it today. All that was done to it was a replaced battery and extra RAM added.

yah, i dont have good experience with dells, sony, fujitsu, vaio, toshiba, hp, ...and i thought there were a few others i was given to use.

the thinkpad has been most reliable.

the classic2 i got in 1990 still works. lol not once did it need overhaul or IT support. just changed memory battery off and on.

My laptop is a warrior

Though it tends to get way too hot for comfort.
