Before buying a notebook,

Look at the specs, price, looks and also the warranty. It is always better to upgrade to a 3year warranty if it is affortable for you.

i would say look at specs,price, warranty then looks..there is no point in having a good looking laptop but the warranty sucks especially when there is a pblm in ur laptop..

take an example of sony viao..very good looking but when there is a pbm, then u have to go mid valley then u have to wait for what, more then 3weeks or 1month+ for it to be fixed? compare that with dell,decent styling but has (in my opinion) the best after sales service there is in this country

They can't do anything cuz SOny notebooks need to be shipped back for repairing..so it takes time. The repairing center here is for minor repairs only.

You want to buy notebook using service length as it parameter? hmm.gif

You can try Packard Bell Easynote C3... It served me for more than 4 years (bought it on August 2004).
