The Lenovo 3000 N200 I found was a really good laptop for Home and Business. This laptop would not suit Basic PC Users only because it would be a waste of money because there are lots of features that a basic PC User would not use - (Fingerprint Reader, Bluetooth and many more...) This Laptop came with Windows Vista Home Premium preinstalled with it, and let me tell you, I HATE VISTA! But once you get familiar with its features it is actually pretty good....But Microsoft still has some work to do. So If you are not a basic PC User than this laptop is for you.

The Dell Latitude D610 laptop was running as good as new when first purchased (obviously). But after about 6 Months the laptop starting running like I had had it for 10 years. Apart from this incident the features of this laptop are not many but the features it does have are really good quality. I would recommend this laptop for business users that get upgraded with new laptops every 6 months.

The Toshiba© Tecra© laptop was very good working laptop, until problems started. First every now and then the screen flickered. The computer responded very slow and sometimes needed to be restarted to fix the problem. Eventually the screen died and so did the Graphics driver. So the only way to fix the problem was to replace the two items. This also meant that the mother board would also have to be replaced. I don’t think I would do that for such a bad computer. Apart from that all the devices-apart from the RAM, Processor and screen, the others worked perfectly and are now being used in another computer. This laptop is good if you have patience and are upgraded every 3 Months. This computer is for Basic computer users.
