the decision when coming to buy a laptop for you for the first time it all depends on what you are going to use it for and this guide will help you choose your selection:
  • if you are going to use your laptop for media center use, buy a 17" since it is big and easy to use for media center features, it has built in high quality speakers and a num pad on the keyboard. Laptops in this group usually cost between the prices $800-$3000 Brand New
  • if you are going to use your laptop for professional designs and productions, buy a Apple Macbook Pro or simply Macbook, because it is the best laptop just for productions and designs of website, videos, pictures, music, and effects. Laptops in this group usually cost between the prices $1000-$3200 Brand New and depending on the specs that will be chosen.
  • if you are going to use your laptop for average use, buy a 15" laptop, if you don't mind the weight and only going to be carrying it around a bit it should be perfect for you. Laptops in this group usually cost as low as $500-$1500 Brand New
  • if you are going to use your laptop for school use, buy a 14" or 13" or even a 12", these sizes are perfect for students since they are small and portable and reliable, they aren't made for gaming or anything, just portability, fast, slim design, and easy to use. Laptops in this group usually cost between the prices of $900-$3000 Brand new
  • if you are buying a laptop for major portability for work, buy a 12" or less with tablet features, it will be extra portable, extra light, extra slim, and extra fast usage with the tablet feature on it, tablet pcs cost as low as $800 from the brand HP and up to the hghest price of $3000, all depending on the specs chosen for the computer.
  • if you buying a laptop just for fun and have money to spend on it, buy an Asus EEE-PC, it is a small cute and extra portable computer and it is very cheap in price, this computer can be ran on Linux and Windows XP-Micro Edition or Mini Edition. This computer only cost $400-$500 it is a good price to buy it, this computer can also be used for school but the screen is really small.
In Conclusion the laptop that you will be choosing you should double check with all specs before buying because laptop parts to add on are very hard to find and expensive to buy and hard to install unless you get external devices like a usb bluetooth dongle, but it will eat up your battery completely. in the end i hope this guide helped...
