I will start by saying it isn't really an option to "customize" a laptop.
They're not nearly as easy to swap boards in and out as you can with a
desktop.
If you don't want to screw around with getting rid of all the unwanted
software and games that come on most commercial laptops, you can look on the
Microsoft site for I think they call them certified or something.
Another option is to find a listing on sites like Ebay that advertise a
clean install of Windows 10 with no other bloatware.
At one time, I would say avoid Acers, they used to have more hardware issues
andd their support wasn't very good. That may have changed lately.
Personally, I have used HP for my last few leptops.
The main thing with a laptop is to get some hands-on experience with it.
Unlike desktops, their keyboard layout and feel can vary quite a bit between
different brands or models.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions
Hello,
I am looking for opinions about laptop brands. I know there isn't one
perfect answer to this but I do value the opinions and experiences of
others. I want to purchase a Windows 10 laptop. Here are my
questions;
1. Which brand would you recommend? Why?
2. What brand would you totally avoid? Why??
3. Since I use Jaws, would it be better to purchase a system off the
shelf or have one custom built? I have had them custom built before
because I didn't want all of the games and extra unaccessible programs
taking up space.
These will do for a start.
Thanks for your input!
