Gotta buy a new lap top....thoughts?

[TexasSP]

I used to reload windows when I purchased new PC's, however now I just download and run CCleaner and remove it all.

The Dell warranty is nice though and next day on site repair is awesome. Another nice thing with the XPS line is you get XPS support which is US and Canada based.

I am with you on the Toshibas. They seem nice but have cheap outer components and buttons always seem to come off much like the Sony Vaio's.

Another one to check out is Prostar. They have a great reputations for high end customizable laptops. I have one client that has had one for 4 years with literally zero issues.

I'm gonna go check out those Sammy's.

On another forum, someone recommended ASUS as a possibility. They have some unique features, but I'm not thrilled with the RAID array.

I'm also on the fence about what SSD would do for me. Cost isn't really an issue, but I am concerned that I'd kill the low memory with them. Are there aftermarket means of increasing or aleviating this. It seems that graphics are what I end up freezing my machines with most of the time.
