I have never liked Acer. I have tried a couple of ther desktops and they were cheap. Not only in price but quality. We decided to give the laptops a whirl. There are some things about them that are excellent but other things I don't think they put too much thought into. I have handle a few other Acer laptops but they never tripped my trigger. (i.e. the placement of the headphone/mic jacks in the front, PCMCIA slot towards the front on the side, etc.) It makes attaching things awkward. Plus this wan't the only model I have seen battery life suffer on.
HP make darn good switches and printers. Their systems aren't much to be desired. I have handle more than one HP laptop and when you get one that leaves a major sour taste in your mouth, you just start nit picking everything that comes from the company. I admit, I was probably harsh when judging an HP but it takes 10 atta-boys to get rid of an uh-oh.
The one thing I do like about some of the larger HP laptops is the full keypad next to the keyboard. That will give them about 4 atta-boys.

Dell machines have always been reliable. All the way back to my first Dimension XPS R400. I have hardly ever had a problem with them. The company I work for is an all Dell shop (except for a bunch of tablet PCs because Dell doesn't make them). We have had impeckable service with Dell and is probably the reason why we choose Dell every time our lease is up.
I actually think the reason ebackhus doesn't like Dell is because they are all Intel and he is an AMD man.
