I had a dell inspiron mini 10 for like, five-six years. However, this is the third time its decided it wanted to play dead so I'm just going to let it be. it's too expensive to get it fixed and I want (and need) a real laptop. So, any suggestions? A Macbook is kind of out of the question for now, they're too expensive. Any help would be lovely and rewarded with cookies!!

The company is the leading manufacturer of motherboards (pretty much the most expensive component) so there's a price cut there. They also don't do too much advertising and aren't really carried that widely in retail outlets, so that's advertising fees and retail markups you're avoiding. I use an asus a53e, which is a model no longer on the market.Amazon - Windows 7 operating system (previous edition. Windows 8 is kinda terrible.), 15" screen. Amazon, price low to high. Most of these are "used" as they're a previous edition of windows.Bestbuy - 15" screen, low to high. There are some DIRT cheap laptops in here.

The repair shop guy said it was a common problem with them. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad...ugly to look at aesthetically but works well. My sister has a HP and I believe it's worked well for her
