I am looking to get a new laptop since I will be on the road for 5 months during this summer/fall. I was originally going to get the Dell Inspiron 1100, but a few days ago I noticed that Office depot has an HP Pavilion ze4610us on sale. By the time I pay tax and shipping on the Dell, the HP would come about about $30 cheaper. The big factor for me is AMD vs Intel... I am a big AMD fan, and would rather have the AMD processor. However, a few of my friends have told me of their experiences with HP laptops, and were quite displeased with them and their quality. I am not too worried about the tech support; I am a computer guy. Most likely, the only time I would use tech support is if some hardware failed while under warranty.
I am looking to use the laptop about 2 or maybe 3 years before selling it and upgrading. I don't plan on gaming, but I will be watching some DVDs, doing some application development, and I always have at least 3 or 4 programs running at once.
That being said, what do you think? The sale on the HP ends this Saturday, so I am trying to make up my mind within a few days.
