Which of the following notebook is the best ?

There are 3 suggestions to question “Which of the following notebook is the best ?”

1. i have an ibm/lenovo thinkpad so i would go with the lenovo

2. Here is a comparison from Nextag:

   Specs on the Lenovo:
   * 1.6GHz N270 Intel Atom Processor
   * 1GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM 667MHz
   * 10.2″ WSVGA AntiGlare TFT with integrated camera 1024×600
   * 160GB 5400rpm hard drive
   * Intel GMA 950 Integrated Graphics
   * Wi-Fi wireless and Bluetooth
   * 3-Cell Li-ion battery
   * Size: 9.8″ x 7.2″ x 1.2″ (including feet)
   * Weight: 2.64 lbs (with 3-cell battery)

   Specs on the Acer:
   * Screen: 8.9? at a 1024×600 resolution, with LED backlit
   * CPU: Intel Atom at 1.6GHz
   * Solid State Drive: 8GB
   * RAM: 512MB DDR2
   * Connectivity: Ethernet, Wifi 802.11B/G
   * Operating System: Linpus GNU/Linux
   * Weight: About 2 pounds, or 900gr
   * Dimensions: 9.8?x 6.7?x 1.14?

   Specs on the Asus:
   Featuring the 900 series’ body size (the same as the smaller 7″ model), a 8.9″ LED backlit screen with a resolution of 1024 by 600 pixels, and a 1.6GHz atom processor, the 900HA comes with a cheaper and more reasonable 160GB 4200rpm hard disk, 1GB of DDR2 memory, standard wireless (B/G), and a 4 cell battery.

   Specs on the MSI Wind:
   CPU speed 1600 Mhz
   OS Linux
   Display Size
   10″ 1024 X 600
   RAM 1024 MB
   Hard Disk 80 GB
   Battery capacity 24 (Wh)
   Weight 1200g
   Size (w/h/d mm) 260/180/31 mm

   So that being said:
   Processor: Same for all, no better or worse on any
   Memory (RAM): All 1GB except the Acer. Acer worst for this category. They make laptops with much better RAM (many now can hold up to 4GB)
   Hard Disk Space: Lenovo and Asus are best
   Display Size: Lenovo or MSI Wind
   Battery: Asus
   Connectivity: Lenovo

   I’ve only highlighted certian aspects, but the Lenovo and Asus seem the best. The Acer fails in comparison to the capabilities of the others. If I had to pick between the four, I would get the Lenovo.
   They make far better laptops than these four, but I’m guessing you’re working on a budget?
   I have an HP Pavillion dv9700. The specs on it are 1.9 GHz processor, 3GB RAM (just upgraded from 1GB), 130+ GB Hard Disk Space, 4 cell battery.

   Hope that helps.

3. You can’t go wrong and I personally recommend Dell! There are hidden long-run costs that one does not initially see when you purchase a Notebook PC other than Dell, HP or IBM and later encounter difficulties or attempt buying replacement parts like a battery, or say a keyboard etc.

   Also if you’re buying for college then I do NOT recommend a Notebook PC bigger than 15.4″ bec we have 3 DELLs incl a larger 17″ Notebook PC and the larger ones are nice but much too heavy to lug around campus as well as too big for lecture hall desks in college…

   I mentioned we own 3 Dell Notebook PCs and why I recommend DELL, HP or IBM for those living in the United States is that those 3 particular PC Notebook manufacturers literally supply all the business Notebook PCs to the major corporations and Government so replacement parts are readily available esp on EBAY at even a more reasonable price than the manufacturer website. Thus in the long run, being able to get the exact replacement part extends the life on your investment.

   FYI my 1st Notebook PC was Gateway bec I couldn’t afford Dell at the time and what a mistake is was when I needed to purchase a new Notebook battery
