Ok, taking score and the most popular brand seems to be Asus. Lenovo has good ratings, too, and Gateway ain't bad, either. Dell sucks, or it sucks if you get it cheap, at least (and I'm wanting to stay under $1,000, which also knocks Apple out of my little competition). I'll be taking my info down to Microcenter, probably later this week, and get my new laptop. I just hope I can get a decent Asus for under $1,000. I know I can get an i7 processor for less than a grand, but most of them are Dells and/or refurbished and I'm really going to have to think about whether or not I really want to deal with all the issues inherent to a refurb.
I haven't really tried Linux before, but when I get my new laptop, I'm thinking of experimenting with Ubuntu on my old one and if everything works out alright, maybe even switching it to my new one. Any suggestions or thoughts on that?
