Sean’s Wife asked:


My husbands deployment just started, and we want to buy a laptop to send to him. What is the best kind to get? (The can have internet hooked up in their rooms)

I don’t want to spend too much money, but I want to it work. So Does anyone know of a good brand or kind to buy?

   Check out this web page:

   They have a lot of good deals over there. You should buy him a case and some canned air to go with it.

   Well both me and my hubby like HP laptops they are a little bit more pricey but they last a long time. I am on my second one and the first one I had lasted 2 1/2 years before I bought this one. The old one still operates just fine the power switch is the only thing that doesn’t work very well any more. You can always ask him what kinds of things he wants the laptop to have, like if he is a gamer, or watches movies, ect. You can also go into best buy and tell them what your looking for and then they can recommend a good one for you, but again I have always had the best luck with HPs. I had a Dell laptop years ago and hated that piece of crap it broke and their customer service was a pain to deal with even though I had the warranty. Several members of my family have had Toshiba’s and after awhile the processing speed slowed way down and they take for ever just to power on. Hope this helps a little.

   Good luck

   get a non brand one. Its like a nonbrand phone. The samsung model 3598589 isnt as well known as the blackberry. They are usually cheaper. Look for those.
