Which brand of laptop would you get, gateway or hewlett-packard?
I am using it for college, surfing net, digital camera stuff, listening to music, etc. Which brand has the least problems overall? My two choices of laptops are between a Hewlett-Packard AMB Turion 64 mobile technology ML-37 model DV5224NR or a Gateway Platinum Edition Notebook with AMD TurionĂ¢„¢ 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 Model: MX6455

I would choose the HP because Gateway has slipped in the last few years. They've closed all their stores and you don't see ads like you did in the 90's.
3 :
Neither one. A dell explodes much better

Well, I have gateway and think it is awesome but HP is also real good. I would ask a computer expert or someone at the store about it.. they can help better. either way both laptops are great.

I would go for an Acer http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834115250

Do you realy have to choose between the two? But anyway you may want to consider Dell brand... :~)

Stay away from HP. Quality is poor and they are a bear to get repairs on once out of warranty. My wife's HP laptop went to the shop four times under warranty (yes, in ONE YEAR) and then went to an indepdent shop twice more before we got rid of it. Gateway is all right. Nothing great. Dell will cost less and probably work better. Best laptops (right now) are Lenovo Thinkpads and Sony Vaios. (Not counting Macs, but I'm assuming you want a pure PC -- even though current Macs CAN boot Windows...) Toshiba is a good bet for an inexpensive laptop as they are generally high quality and easy to configure. Dell is always a popular option, but keep in mind, there's a reason they're so cheap. The premium on a Thinkpad will get you better support and a better machine.

I have an HP, which has been sent back three times for repairs. Now it's past warranty and it needs to go in again - all for the same reason - where the ac adapter plugs in, it quits making the connection so the battery can't charge.

Skip those two and go with Dell

I have always found Toshiba to be a good value and highly reliable.

That's a tough question. I own an HP laptop that I am very happy with, and support about 150+ Gateway notebooks at my job. In my experience, Gateway has provided me with excellent service, high quality equipment, and an excellent website for help, driver upgrades, and technical support. I'd say Gateway, simply from my own extensive experience with them.

With so many choices out there I can see why people people have a difficult time choosing. I have used and worked on all brands and while Dell, Gateway and Hewlett Packard are great companies to deal with I have recently swayed my personal opinion over to HP. Technology changes so rapidly and the type of work I do I needed a laptop which was capable of being "a portable pc" with the latest and greatest. After extensive research Hp offered more bang for my buck and I absolutly love my new lap top. I chose a pentium 4 processor good stuff
