Laptops.
Hi all,
We are getting our Daughter a laptop for her 18th. It will be for general use with perhaps some gaming, watching DVDs and needs a wireless connection. What are the 'good' makes? I know Dell have a fair reputation but I don't want all the stuff that comes with them, plus I'd like XP on it but they only seem to offer Vista. Of the others I have seen I know some of the names and haven't heard anything about others so don't know what/who to avoid. Any recommendations?
Cheers.
Edit. Oh and we will probably spend around £700.

Anything?
If you are concerned about all that garbage being re-installed if you have to restore the computer, just keep a fresh image and you wouldn't need the factory restore CDs (or restore sector on the hard drive). That's the way I'm doing it.
Thanks again.
