<p>I really, really would not get a Dell. I have owned many Dells in the past and they all seem to get a strange problem around 2-3 years of age where they won’t hold a charge whatsover - accidentally unplug the computer for less than five seconds and it will die. This has happened to ALL Dells that I have had or known someone who had, though at varying times (2-3 years, my sister’s held out for 5) and if you google the error message that it will give you every time you boot it up (forgot what it was), you get thousands of results.</p>
<p>I have an HP now, and I like it, though I’ll have to admit it’s only a few months old. I just will never get a Dell again after all of them died like that.</p>
