I didn't know lenovo was Chinese? either way they are very reliable my dad has had the same one for 5 years also the hinges and screen casing are stainless steel. lenovo hasn't changed much from what I can tell of the way IBM made these. Just giving an opinon

Thank you my good man. I was posting that in response to people who decided to inform him of how much it sucked and was his fault, instead of addressing the OP's question.

I got Lenovo T61 loaded. This thing is build so small and tough at the same time (mine is 14" standard screen) :)

can't get any better than IBM, lol. I should have known that when I bought my previous laptop (HP)

I've got a nearly 2 year old HP pavillion. Works great for what i need it for - playing WoW, doing schoolwork, browsing the intarweb. It was about 1500 bucks when i got it.

I guess my recommendation depends on what you need it for. If it's for toting around between class and writing notes on, i'd seriously consider an Acer. you don't need more power, they're a bit cheaper, and generally pretty small.

Otherwise, i found that brand doesn't matter so much as what's in the machine. If you wanna play games on it, make sure it has a real graphics card, for example.

But considering what you were using your old one for, and since it got stolen and you probably don't want to spend too much, i'd go with an Acer.

Damn that sucks man . Story kinda reminds me of my roomate getting his laptop / ipod / cell phone stolen in JFK in NY fell asleep in the terminal with his bags under his feet some one came by and took em . You should get the HP special edition pavilion its pretty nice and runs smooth and fast friend has one it comes with vista its $950 though .
