Laptop

I need to buy a new one soon. Mainly for study purposes, but also web-browsing, and maybe to watch videos. 

I do not want to buy Apple - only Windows. Screen should be 17 inch or bigger.

Is it better to buy a laptop or buy a computer that has a small 'tower' with a separate screen?

I need something reliable, so please suggest good brands from your experience. I have used Dell for a long time but want to use alternative company.

Thanks

Stick with Dell unless their quality control has regressed in the past 10 years. Their laptops are work-horses. If you want something fashionable, then there's many manufacturers out there. 

Thanks for your suggestion.

Are there any other brands you would recommend, or avoid?

!7 inch or more are mostly gaming laptops.  15" or lower are usually for reg. web browsing, videos. 

You need to be aware of this because gaming laptops are about double/triple the price of smaller 15.5" or lower.

Dell Alienware is best recommended for 17. if you want go lower, then look at Lenovo. They are what used to be IBM. the most secure and fail safe laptops in my opinion.  I've traded many of these especially the Lenovo yoga's.

Yeah, lenovo is decent...bought a b570 more than 6 years ago and it's still working well - can't recall having any problems with it.

As mentioned, good security (fingerprint scanner) plus a system recovery button above the keyboard makes data backup/recovery easy. Build quality is decent too.

I heard that HP aren't as good as they use to be, although that may have changed recently. Something to do with overheating. Huawei MateBook is supposedly the top laptop at the moment. Acer make decent laptops, too.

I know you said no Apple, but I think you should really give them a second thought. I purchased a MacBook Pro in 2012 and it's still going strong, and the free yearly update of macOS secures your computer more so than any Windows machine, not to mention the issues Windows has with privacy. 

Shouldn't this be in the Lifestyle section?

You cant beat a proper desktop computer. Every aspect is usually better. Better screen, faster, more storage, memory ect. build quality. Proper keyboard. Also more professional. 

But if your looking for something portable. A laptop will do. If you just want to everyday things like surfing the web, playing videos ect.

I would reccomend dell, hp lenvo is also a upcomming brand. 

Acer laptops are also very good. but for top quality go for a hp or a dell. both are equally good. Although I think hp have taken over them recently.

    • Hi All, I havent been on this forum for a while but I thought id give it a try again as it helped me through some rough times earlier in my life. I wanted to seek for guidance on sikhi and marriage ... I noticed a post earlier on sanjog etc. and it got me thinking about my own life and marriage. For context, I have been married 3 years and things are not working out. When we met, I looked in to sanjog alot and it felt like it was written. However, as these years have gone by its become apparent that we no longer align with each other and our marriage is struggling. We dont seem to understand each other and things have fallen apart. We are at a stage now where separation/divorce is looking like the best option. Neither of us are happy and whilst we have tried to work things through in many different ways, after 3 years we have drifted away. What are the sikh views on this? is it written if we decide that we no longer serve each other? or is that a sin and should I continue to work at it? my issue at the moment is that it is draining me. I feel withdrawn from everything due to things going on between us including sikhi and going to the gurdwara.  Breaks my heart to even be writing this but I do think if we are both not happy and cant see a way of being happy then what is the point in continuing? Or should I be continuing and is it paap if we dont honour our laavan? if that is the case, what does sikhi say about marriage? how do I continue knowing everyday I feel the way I do?   Thanks
