Budget usually build yourself. Or if you don't know, Dell is the best. They are the cheapest among all brands I know. For personal use, buy desktop since you know DIY for a desktop.Originally posted by StaplerCreamPie:Im buying a laptop... personal one.... wad brand should i buy... dell? acer? thinkpad? compaq?

This is for average use, meaning for normal use of word processing, powerpoint and all. Gaming, if you play Yahoo games. For serious gaming, please look at other laptops, or like I say, build a desktop for yourself.Originally posted by StaplerCreamPie:
