They will still honor all warranties and parts will still be available until well after you get a new PC.

I would recommend a Sony. We ordered ours directly through their website, I also would recommend doing it that way, shipping is usually free and you can get it set up how you want.

Their customer service is probably the best I have ever encountered also. Dell or Sony, those are probably the only two brands I would buy at this point.

I think I am going to try to keep my HP Media Center going as long as I can.

I use Lenovo at home. They aren't all shiny and great looking, but they are a solid laptop. Their service has somewhat gone downhill since Lenovo took over. IBM was much better.

I have been contemplating buying a new laptop for almost a year now, now I am going through a maybe I should get a tablet thought phase. Still not sure which route I should go... I have a Dell for work and it's great. Jim's dad is trying to convince me to get a Lenovo, just because he has one. I think if I do get a laptop it'll be a Dell because I can get it in the green color I love!
