Bah!

I really need a new job so I can buy a new laptop. I've only had this thing 18 months and I've had a corrupt hard drive and now I seem to have a loose connection in my charger. Every now and then when I move it while it's plugged in I lose power.

As soon as I can afford it I'm getting a decent brand name. Either a Toshiba or a Sony

*nods*

Gotta pass my driving test first though. Ack!

I have an Acer, they're really a good brand.

Really? I've never heard of them

My mum's boyfriend has one too now. I've had mine for 3 years nearly and it's still working fine.

Thanks!

My last one was an Acer and I had nothing but trouble. I had to send it back three times because the video card was bad, and then the power cord died.

Good Luck, with everything!

Don't get a Sony. They suck!

You'll pass the driving! No probs!

Really? I want a Vaio. I thought they were supposed to be good

Solidly built, but expensive.
The power supplys are VERY specific. Don't think you can geta generic one.
Used some at work, granted a few year old now. They feel clunky and work like not fun or shiney.
If you have money to spare, go for a Macbook or the like. They are usually light,can have windows and OSX. Very groovy webcam built in. Good range on the wireless.

I'm very much anti Apple because I think they are massively over-priced for what they are tbh

I'll have a look around a bit nearer the time and see what takes my fancy

Toshibas rule, yo.
