[QUOTE="dirtrider73068, post: 3261812, member: 44606"] I have a hp laptop thats seen better days, I have had it going on about 4 or 5 years still works great like the day I bought it, catch is I didn't buy it in a store I ordered straight from HP. I have heard if you buy in store you could be buying already outdated computers that are not that could in a couple years and then you end up buying another. I was told to if you order straight from the manufacturer you get the current parts in it, not sure how true it is. I had a gateway my first desktop it was ok for the first year then went down hill fast, got a HP desktop that I had for long time it started to get slow and laggy, got a dell lap top it last about 3 years before the screen messed up would go very dim had to use a external monitor, now I have my hp laptop I am very pleased with it, my other half has a hp desktop but its in storage and is using a acer touch screen laptop that works good. Most of my files I also keep in a external hard drive I don't keep alot of files saved on my laptop unless I need them, otherwise they go on a external hard drive other wise I use what I need and delete open that HD space up helps make it run better, oh I also never turn my laptop off or reboot much, just close the lid and put it sleep.
