My vote right now is for Acer. My daughter's Acer survived overheating, spilled soft drinks, cheetos dust, getting slammed around in the back of her car, numerous drops ( including one really exciting down the stairs roll I got to witness first hand) and all the other torture and neglect a high school girl can inflict on hardware. The only thing I've had to replace is the power adapter, which was covered under warranty and shipped to my home in under three days. My girl has moved on to a college-level HP and my bride now uses the Acer as her sofa-surfer.

Oh, wait a minute, I never owned an IBM laptop (or the Chinese company that the bush (non)administration allowed to purchase the IBM laptop business). So maybe that is why I never had one that failed... Seriously, my best laptops were Sony Vaio units, although I had one Compaq Presario laptop that my daughter still uses to this day (and hates to think she would have to replace it any time soon), and several HP laptops, including my current ze2000 that runs 2Gb RAM and a 160Gb hard drive (both upgrades I installed). Runs great with XP Pro and Linux 8.10 Desktop 32 bit OS. Never a problem with any of them.
