You want to buy them one. Give in here. Dell Inspiron 1520 Notebook Computer $824.00

Dell Inspiron 1420 Dell delivers what mainstream laptop buyers crave with this well-equipped, colorful Inspiron. Gateway M-150X Gateway's new midrange M-series notebooks incorporate a fresh, contemporary design and some fancy features, but middling performance and a few design miscues hold them back. Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC If you're looking for an extremely portable PC that will attract attention at the airport or your favorite hotspot, the Q1 Ultra fits the bill—but you won't get much work done on the road. Fujitsu LifeBook A6030 The moderately mobile A6030 should suffice for basic computing needs. Just don't expect to be away from a power outlet for long. HP Pavilion DV9500t Entertainment Notebook The Santa Rosa-based HP Pavilion DV9500t isn't the speediest performer, but its sleek design, beautiful screen, and wealth of component options should satisfy most home users. Sony VAIO TZ150N/B Only the high price and sluggish performance detract from Sony's 1-inch-thick flagship laptop, the VAIO TZ, which impresses with smart design and fantastic battery life. Micro Express IFL90 Inside a merely average shell, the Micro Express IFL90 delivers strong performance and above-average battery life for home users who want a media-friendly laptop at a good price. Lenovo 3000 N200 Thanks to its solid performance and quality feature set, you might be able to overlook the N200's lack of visual appeal. Falcon Northwest FragBook TLX Despite its slim case and customizable design, the FragBook TLX can't compete with similarly priced, better-configured gaming notebooks. Enpower ENP660 The low-cost ENP660 combines attractive design and the latest-generation Intel platform—though we suspect you'll want to upgrade a few components. Acer TravelMate 2480-2153 For a good-enough portable at a budget price, this under-$600 TravelMate is hard to beat. Just don't expect many extras—or long battery life. See more reviews
