Never again on Dell. Bought an Inspiron 5100 in May, the touchpad went out after a week, the keyboard was flimsy and had a cheap feel, the tech support was simply horrid...over 8 hours wasted on hold on 5 separate occasions. Tech support is routed through India and the reps I ran across knew nothing about the product. I returned the unit when it was 25 days old.

Back to Toshibas, on my third (and soon to be a fourth, an M35 Centrino model), but I'd stay away from the lower end models. Am currently evaluating an A35 and it's kinda chintzy.
