After what I saw of the insides of a Toshiba recently I'd never buy
one. All plastic clamshell with no metal endoskeleton, worse it's
painted with copper (RF coating?) so that when pieces break off
they're conductive. Of course customer has aggression issue & beat on
it but still.
I've had the impression Alienware was not worth the money, more so now
that Dell has (had?) the brand. When I look and the few purchases I've
been involved in lead me to the HP DV's in $850-$1200 band. Beyond
that mark I look at HP & Lenovo's higher-end business models but I've
not put hands on any to recommend.
