ooo, tough call...
You want something that's good, around $1500, and looks like an apple but runs as a PC? that's what all PC people want :)I'd say alienware if i knew the prices, otherwise you'd be solid with Asus or a Dell. You're not going to find a decent toshiba or sony for that sorta money... consider holding off and spending another $500... if u can...

hey isnt $1500 just exactly what you outrageously charged me for those banner rotation scripts back in 2000?

No. The banner rotation scripts were, and still are, free.You asked me how much I would charge to install them. I said $1200. You said OK, and sent me a check.
The next time you don't want to pay $1200 for something, say "no".
I'm glad I'm unfogettable.

Stay away from toshiba.
My experience my this crappy laptop ($2300) , their costumer service and their repair centres have been a nightmare. Worst than cancer.I have sent it 9 times for repairs and they have replcaed the cd drive, the hard drive, motherboard, screen, covers, etc.... For about 1.6 years I couldn't turn it off. Plus they damaged the keyboard, screen, speakers and other stuff.
In fact next week I'll send it again coz the last time they damaged the screen cover and can't close the laptop anymore, but the motherfuckers want $ this time coz they warranty expired.Fought for a replacement and then for extended warranty, but got nothing.
Ended up filing complains with the bbs in New Jersey and LA and the FTC

I had similar criteria when I bought the vaio I'm currently using to write this on. Could I find a beautiful machine anywhere? Not really, but my S2XP is understated and kind of mean looking - kind of how I imagine Darth Vader's laptop might look.
Except, I guess the key layout would be larger to account for his pudgy be-gloved fingers.
And there'd be a big red button in the middle, which upon depressing would make good people feel queasy - as if there'd been some massive distrubance in the force.
There, you've made me talk shit now. More tea, please vicar.
