>>>I can assembly PC. I did it in the past. But I bought a HP desktop to my daughter. Because I don't want to care about any broken part of her pc. Her HP never stopped since bought (3-4 years). I could bought a notebook with same money but; she wouldn't play sims 3 with a notebook well and she wouldn't spill her tea at keyboard freely... :)

>>I would strongly recommend against HP because of my experience with their laptops. Not that there's anything wrong with mine, but daughter's had a wireless unit which was overheating, which then damaged the nearest part of the motherboard, which eventually died... a month after the warranty expired. HP was well aware of the problem, and decided to do exactly nothing about it, because it usually happened a month after the warranty expired. Also, their marketing department is pulling the usual rebate scam, which is simply unforgivable. There's also the mumbo-jumbo they pull with their ink. IOW, HP may have good machines, but I'll not trust them anymore.

>If issue is notebook Toshiba is number one.

Yep, the next one was Toshiba (for my wife - and they still sold with XP then, which was a way to stay away from the Vista). Now after three years, there was no hitch at all. It did come with the usual amount of crapware on it, but it was not welded too deeply and was easy to remove.
