I'm partial to Toshiba Sattelite
My first was a 386 8M RAM TFT display, W95(A) (It failed a 'drop test' in 2003' )
My second had a 1.8MHz Celeron 640M RAM (later upgraded to 1G: (hand me-down RAM
)) With XP Pro (USB now flakes out after a while)
My latest is an AMD, 3G RAM W7 HP
Hard choice; Dell or Toshiba ?
