Hey everyone. I am new here so bear with me please.
Ok I am looking to buy a laptop. Around the $1500 range. Give or take $500.
I need a laptop that can last for more then 3 hours (w/o the extra battery). If I end up buying an extra battery I want it to be able to fit into the extra bay.
The laptop can be upgradeable but if I customize the laptop to my exact needs then that won't be necessary.
These are the brands I was really looking into - Dell (5150, 8600), Alienware (Sentia Performance and the other medium ranged Sentia), Acer (803ci).
I have heard that Acer is an "iffy" brand because they tried to pull a HP and throw in used parts into their laptops.
The Dells (from what I heard) are strong all the way around except in support but I don't need support. I can fix my own problems.
The Alienwares are supposidley (sp?) the best all around for laptops.
Ok what I really need is for you guys to just clarify or correct what I have said about the laptops, give me any extra additional info on them/pros and cons. If you have another laptop in mind that will run great (performance and speed wise) and has a good battery life then please mention it.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!
