What would you suggest I buy?? I want it to last her for 4+ years and I'd also like it to be her DVDplayer/ TV set.

Suggestions??

Thanks-in-advance
They used to be very good, but they are using crappy components and with service that went from the best to "give me a friggin' break!". I had two hard drives go south on my last Dell, and my newest one (both company issued, so don't chastise me for buying them) has had two major issues already, and that's with fairly light usage.

I have to go with Toshiba based on comments from my uber-geek son.

Best of luck to you and your daughter buddy!
