any suggestions for a laptop brand? my dell vostro 1500 is all right but lately its starting to freeze up a little tooo much and i have w7u and its awsome but my laptop is over 5 years old, maxed out with a 500 gb hdd damn it man!!!!

If you're happy with your Dell, and have had 5 years use, I'd say you've done well with that brand so far. Dell always seem to be good value for money.

Personally, I'd look for an i5/i7 processor, Radeon/Nvidia graphics, and the largest RAM/HD capacity for the money.

Just checked your location - US, so $600 should get you at least a nice i5 laptop - an i7 may be a little harder to find within your price range.

Happy Shopping, and best of luck.

ur totally right i really want an i5 with at least 2.3 Ghz dual core processor and a minimum of 256 mb gfx card etc. and im sticking with w7u noooo isssues

Good choice - especially the Windows 7

I got the previous gen model w/out OS for 400$ and put in a 256GB Samsung 840Pro SSD. runs absolutley flawless with Win8.

No Offense to Kev, but once you tried Win8 and don't let yourself fall for the "there's no start-button hate" you won't go back to Win7.

The Start-page itslef is so much more convinient, you can simply type what you serach for and it'll be there. The Win8 search-functions is over the top! Plus it really needs less ressources.

Point taken Hannes

I've had very little experience with Win 8, but I did find it a little confusing. I will admit that it runs really fast and looks nice, but I couldn't find anything!

I guess I'm too used to that 'Start Menu'

hmmm thats a good look hannes..BUT i rather stick with windows 7 Ultimate for the time being, w8 is still too unstable to use with mixvibes, ill wait a few years until they get all the bg bugs out

How is Win8 not stable with Cross, have you tried yourself?
I'm running it flawlessly

i always wait a few years before i switch plus i found the laptop i want.......http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834312429 thankx to u hannes, i always thought lenovo was just for business.

i really recommend a thinkpad
