Hey everyone... I cannot figure out what laptop I should review~! Are there any new laptops, that you cannot seem to find a review for anywhere? Please let me know! If enough people respond to this and there is enough agreement, I will do my best to get a hold of the laptop and review it. =)


I am subscribing to this thread so please let me know within the next week~!

Cheers

What about the new Dell Adamo? I haven't really seen any indepth reviews around on it yet. I thought that it was released, but maybe I'm wrong. I'm curious to see what it can do in terms of performance, i.e. real world use.

I'd start by reading some of the following:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laptop_brands_and_...

The vast majority of laptops on the market are manufactured by a small handful of Original Design Manufacturers (ODM).[2]
* Quanta sells to (among others) HP/Compaq, Dell, Toshiba, Sony, Fujitsu, Acer, NEC, Gateway and Lenovo/IBM - note that Quanta is currently (as of August, 2007) the largest manufacturer of notebook computers in the world.
* Compal sells to Toshiba, HP/Compaq, Acer, and Dell.
* Wistron (former manufacturing & design division of Acer) sells to HP/Compaq, Dell, IBM, NEC, Acer, and Lenovo/IBM.
* Flextronics (former Arima Computer Corporation notebook division) sells to HP/Compaq, NEC, and Dell.
* ECS sells to IBM, Fujitsu, and Dell.
* Asus sells to Apple (iBook), Sony, and Samsung.
* Inventec sells to HP/Compaq, Toshiba, and BenQ.
* Uniwill sells to Lenovo/IBM and Fujitsu.

CLEVO is a large Taiwanese computer company specializing in laptops. While the Clevo brand name is perhaps not widely known, their products are re-branded and sold by known boutique brand OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers)… notably Sager, VoodooPC, Falcon Northwest, Eurocom, etc.
They are also considered (by whoever knows about notebooks) to design and manufacturer the best of the best notebooks in terms of superior build quality and innovative designs.

Oh I think you misunderstood me! =) I am not asking what laptop to get... I receive laptops and then write reviews on them. I was wondering what laptop I should get and review next. There are many sites like notebookreview, notebookcheck, etc. but a lot of laptops still don't have reviews written for them. For instance I just wrote a review on the Sony Vaio VGN-SR590 and the Sony Vaio VGN-Z890 and Sony Vaio VGN-Z790.

Thanks for all the information though. Sorry for being unclear.

Nice ideas! I will consider it! If enough people ask for it then definitely. =)

Best solution

If you could get your hands on the Sony VGN-NW265F/B laptop with Blu-ray from Black Friday ($479 Best Buy package deal). That would be a nice review. I haven't seen any reviews on it yet and I waited in line forever to get this laptop.
