Toshiba used to make quality machines but in the last 6 years they've almost as bad as acers.

HP are generally ok but they ALL have heat issues. If you keep it clean and change the heat sink compound at about 18 months you'll be fine.

Lenovo's are good very few hardware problems, but generally lack "bling" if thats what your looking for.

Dells run the whole gambit, generally they are respectable machines at comparable price ranges to all the other brands. Problems in dells usually run along model lines so if you machine is good the whole line is good.

Asus usually have good specs but build quality is an issue at times.

Emachine = junk

Apples have good build quality but tend to run like the dells in that certain ones have specific problems.

LG seem to be all over the board, real crap shoot. One will be perfect and the next one off the line is terrible..

MSI = junk

Thats most of the "common" ones, but I've seen dozens of other brands as well. If you have a particular brand or model I can tell you my experience in repairing them..
