    Toshiba Satellite Laptops have never let me down. I use a regular keyboard and monitor at home and pack it up and take it whenever I travel. Best of both worlds

    Go to Walmart, they have some good deals on back to school laptops from Dell, but watch out as some are refurbished, you want new.

    Or if your a Costco member go there, they have a no question asked return policy.

    I find the better laptops with an SSD drive to be some of the fastest boot times you can get, and an SSD drive is more reliable in a laptop as it can take the bumps better.

    HP at the moment... I have had IBM Thinkpads/Lenovo (at work) since IBM developed them and never had any major issues. I had a few Dell's as well, but I always found they run a little hot, but that was a few years ago and no major issues encountered.

    After issues with HP Pavilion i went to Asus with solid state drive.

    Very quick boot up and a lot easier on the budget than many others, as long as you don't need a ton of storage its not a bad choice.

    You can get one from Dell with W7 in it,(order through Dell or even Walmart) but they (Microslut) are going to drop support for W7 very soon.

    I don't know why they didn't stick with W7, it's been working fine for me for many years, W10 is a pain in the backside.

    Terryl i agree with you on Win-10 it is a pain in the backside alright, MS. should support Win-7 longer
    Until "ALL" the Bugs etc. are gone from W-10
