~~ Gadgets - Performance, Looks, Apps, Hottest Models ~~

I'm using a Lenovo for more than 3 years and the performance has been nothing short of awesome. I agree the audio is very very feeble through the speakers. I always use headphones, so I'm not really worried about the weak sound.

OTOH, I have handled a lot of Dell Latitude laptops in my previous job and had faced one problem or another in almost every laptop. The after sales service of Dell is excellent, but those niggles shouldn't be there in the first place. They are little expensive as well.

Toshiba and Lenovo are the two brands I always suggest to my friends when it comes to laptops.

LM,
My replaced Lenova keyboard too has now developed a "lazy" shift key (won't bounce in time, so two caps can happen when you attempt just one; often I'm forced to retype passwords).

The left key of the trackpad too has a broken leaf and hinges on the other. I'm just waiting for the couple of months before I get a new machine and I use it only occasionally thanks to the workload on the client's machine

Coming from a hardware dev / mfg background of over a decade, I'm normally very soft on electronics

With personal experiences like the ones I have with Thinkpads (poor kind of switches / keyboards) it's difficult for me to rate this product as an impressive one -especially when superior products are there.

My frequent rants to the IT support at my company (and many similar complaints from other users, I think) have now resulted in a policy change - that of not buying a brand in bulk by IT dept

They've started giving consultants the freedom to buy any brand / config (upto a $ limit) themselves and get reimbursement, albeit on an experimental / limited scale

Question: Is it advisable to upgrade the RAM in laptop? (For upgrading my OS from Vista to Win 7, I have 2 GB DDR 2 RAM in my laptop)

I think you'll have to...even 32bit version of Windows7 calls for 3GB RAM I was told by experts.

If Vista is running fine in your laptop, Win 7 should work fine too. No need to upgrade.

After reading few reviews, recently I bought Toshiba... even though some of my friends recommended Dell / HP

Thanks for the inputs app, LM!

Except the Qosmio series (the one Naseeruddin uses in 'A Wednesday'), which was a resounding flop, as i found out the hard way.
