I bought an lenovo t61 2 years ago, i am now searching for a new laptop for school still. Looking at 14 inch monitor. The look doesn't have to be fancy, nice keyboard.. Ok graphic card.

 

 

 

I am not sure if it is true, but a lot of my friend's HP laptop tend to run into problems.. so i am not sure if i should hold back on HP laptops.

 

 

 

Any suggestion would be nice.. I am looking for one thats under $1000 CDN

Word of warning, my brother HP laptop has broken either twice or three times. The same problem everytime, the screen stopped working.

any other suggestions?

HP laptops did have overheating problems, but they repaired that on their new models, supposedly.

 

 

 

I was going to link you to an Asus laptop, but I just saw you're not going over $1000 :S.

 

 

 

Edit: I actually found this one: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... CatId=2289

I'm using this exact one right now, and it runs like a dream. Shipping was pretty fast too: 4 days to ship from LA to my place in Canada. Only real downside I've found after a month of use is the length of the power cord. It's shorter than what I'm used to. I've also stretched the battery life to around 3:30 while only web browsing/light usage. And it barely gets warm even under intense use. My old laptop would practically burn my hand if I was to touch the bottom after heavy use.

 

 

 

Including shipping and all other costs, it ended up being $1370 CDN.

I recommend this ASUS K40 Series K40IN-A1 4GB 14" NoteBook, it is in your budget and works fine.
