I had a HP, IBM, Lenovo (ex. ibm), and a Dell till now, but i must say i am most pleased with the Dell (batery life, quality, configuration...). A Inspiron 1525 with 3Gb Ram, 250 Gb Disk, core2 duo 2.1 pocesor and many other options (integrated cam, remote...) should be more than enough. Inspiron is a lower to mid price level notebook. If you buy a used notebook be sure to test all components and be positive they work. Try to get one that still has warranty and take your time for selection.
