Thanks birthday boy!
I was noticing Asus making strides in the laptop market. They used to make very solid hardware and I always went out of my way to buy Asus motherboards. However, I have had 3 Asus RT-N16 routers fail after 2 years each so I am very suspicious about their continuing commitment to quality. I was able to fix the routers by replacing an internal capacitor, a known issue, but I won’t be able to do that kind of surgery on a laptop.

When I researched for it I found the Asus brand to be among the top performers, and so far this has turned out to be true. Overall, Asus products seem to be good and solid. However, its been about 2 years since I last did some serious research, it might be a good start.

It’s been a good laptop (except for the Sony-specific software that hasn’t really worked for about 3 years) but it is due for a replacement. I am looking for a reasonably powerful Intel CPU, lots of memory, and thin profile but solid body. I don’t want the low-end consumer models (Toshiba) that have a cheap body and crack after the first year. You seemed to have a different laptop every 6 months. What kind(s) have you found to be good?
