Hi. One critical thing about laptops for me is the keyboard -- spacing, position of function keys, whether there are two controls and two alt keys, etc. So I'd try to get to a local Best Buy to check them out. I would definitely go for a solid state drive. I have a SSD on my home computer and love it. It's so much faster than the older style drives. I wish my work computer had SSDs!!

If you do more specialised things like making music or need It for a specific purpose, then a off the shelf laptop would suit your needs just fine. Again, depends what your needs are in turms If you want a laptop, If you want to adjust something like making the fans quieter or do you want more then one hard drive. If you want adjustments, then custom built could be a better option. I would say that Dell is your best bet. But Lenovo or HP could also work fine. Hope this helps.
