Yes, I like my Acer. It's zippy and powerful. Not the greatest gaming machine but it does work.

I also have an older IBM ThinkPad T22. It's only 900Mhz but is plenty fast with all I've thrown at it.

Yes, Toshiba had good machines back in the day, but their recent offerings leave much to be desired.

Sony just isn't a brand I trust when it comes to computing. Plus they're god-awful to fix.

HP/Compaq are two brands I'd avoid like the plague.

Dell is a brand that has earned my dislike through constant failures and breakdowns. Not a day goes by where I don't lose one here at work.

Alienware has nice specs but it is horribly overpriced. Recently acquired by Dell.

Gateway has gone the way of Toshiba by falling from glory.

@Yustr - We have a D800 here at the library and it crawls. How fast is yours?
