A reliable laptop to recommend, anyone?

by Penny on June 28, 2010



My 6-month old Acer Timeline is giving me a problem with the screen. The screen’s colours are distorted. It’s quite a disappointment as it’s only 6 months old and I don’t expect to have such a problem. My previous Acer Aspire laptop had screen problems too but that was after some years of use.

Wonder if Acer generally has a weaker screen since both my Acers had problems albeit not the exact same problem. Now I have to send the laptop in to be serviced so I’ll have to suffer downtime for a few days at least. It’s truly an inconvenience as the laptop is my main source of doing business. Even backing up the files I need to be used on another PC is quite a hassle because there’s so much to back up. Now I understand why companies use virtualization services, to avoid this kind of downtime if one PC goes down. But as an individual, the only affordable way is to do manual back-ups.

Anyway, I better get started on it as this baby has to go for service in a few hours already…it will be missed deeply!

Meanwhile, anyone has any great recommendations for a laptop? I may want to stop using an Acer altogether…
