Best Answer

Buying the least expensive unit is not necessarily the best idea if you have certain needs the computer must meet. The only things the absolute cheapest of computers would be good at are: browsing the internet, using writing or spreadsheet programs (like those in Microsoft Office), watching some videos or listening to a music collection. Those basic needs can be met by a very inexpensive unit. I bought a netbook once for about $300 that is very slow and has little processing power compared to most other computers, but all I wanted it for was to have a portable writing unit, so it was fine. Evaluate your needs before you price a model!

Consider All Of Your Options?

You should never purchase a computer just because it is popular. You really need to look at all of your options so that you can get the computer that works for you, not the computer that simply sells the most. Instead of looking at one or two options, you should look at the best 14 laptop computers you can find. If you pick a popular model anyway, at least you know it was for a good reason.
