Please help me with laptop choice!?

If your buying a laptop for that price, you're sacrificing quite a bit and your only going to get pissed off after awhile and will wish you hadn't saved more for a higher end one. When it comes to technology try not to skimp, if you have too then aim for the middle price never for the low end. Mac's are great except their not really made for gaming, you can game its just that there's games that wont run on this system. Also Ive found that the MAC support is awful (just my opinion and what Ive experienced) not to mention they are higher priced. I like HP and their support is outstanding!..I touch on support because you will find out its very important if you don't know this already...the thing is you have to do the research yourself. everyone has an opinion on why one is better then the next but you have to figure out what it is your going to be using it mostly for and then pursue that route..Again a laptop for that cheap is only going to cause you headaches..save more money and get a better one, you'll thank yourself for waiting.
