I usually recommend Dell: business lines of laptops, see which are
offered
with 3 to 5 years warranty, I do get cheapest 3 year warranty, but Dell committing to maintain it for 5 years tell you that that is solidly
built,
and is not expected to be obsoleted soon.
<snip> Seconded. Hell, I tell everyone, including my kids, DO NOT BUY consumer-grade laptops, only business-grade. Even buying one used online, they'll last longer than any crap consumer grade.
We have a lot of Dell Latitudes here at work.
Why would anybody buy consumer-grade laptops for use in a business?
Actually, I recommended a used HP Elitebook to a retired lecturer here at work when he asked for advice on a new laptop to start writing a new edition of medicinal chemistry book. Boy, was he pleased with the two-three year old laptop!
