| A friend of mine is looking for a laptop, any recommendation on which
brands are the best? She mainly wants to run Powerpoint presentations
on it for clients.

| Depending on how much she wants to spend. If she needs longer usage go with
a Centrino. If money is a concern then look at a celron or ahtlon. She
also should look for one with some sort of AV out so she is able to hook it
up to a TV monitor. I Have a Compaq that works well. My daughter had a
Tohiba that she liked until it was stolen she now has an HP and seems to
like it. I looked at the Sonys but ruled them out because they are a little
to pricey for what you get and I saw more of them in the service department
than any other laptop. Hope this helps.

| The best brands are the Toshiba models actually built by Toshiba, and
IBM Thinkpads. Everything else is a notch (or more) lower. The Toshiba
models actually built by Toshiba have 15-volt power supplies, while the
models designed and built for them by a Taiwanese contractor have
19-volt power supplies.

| I use PCs for compatibility but would consider a Mac, especially if your
friend is a neophyte.
