Hi I just graduated college and i have had the same desktop for about 5 years and i am looking to get a new computer. I do a lot of video editing, and just listen to music and stuff like that. No gaming, I game on a 360. Ive been looking at dells, but when i went to Best Buy the guy told me dell laptops are always breaking down and he said that Toshiba was a more reliable brand. Im stuck on where to start looking, what brand etc. I would like 2 x 160gb harddrives and atleast 2gb ram, dvd burner etc. I have a 2.0ghz pentium 4 desktop dell dimension 4500. I put in a dvd burner and a 320gb hard drive, It also has 1gb ram. Is it really time to upgrade now? Please help me decide I am clueless on where to go. I guess im looking at laptops because i can take it anywhere and my desktop takes up a lot of space in my room. thanks for the info. it will help greatly.
