    Apart from spec, whats in your opinion is the most desireable base laptop? Looking for something well made and durable.

    Opinions? Cheers.

    I would hold asus in quite high regard. Haven't heard many problems with samsung laptops (look quite nice too) but they are quite new to the laptop market. I've had a few dells (can't really beat dell for customisation) and they've been pretty problem free. I know people who have had hp laptops and had nothing but trouble, saying that they were probably just the unlucky few.

    I am a huge fan of the IBM Thinkpads. Used a lot of Laptops over the past few years but I constantly come back to the Thinkpad... Nice and small too. Only thing is you use the nipple type thing as a mouse which works far better than those sensitive pad things...

    I have a thinkpad x31

    I've only had the one hp, but never had a problem with it. Even tripped over the cable one night, sending it off the table and 2m across the room. Survived the trip, I was well impressed.

    Like I said they were probably just the unlucky ones.
