I'd avoid ACER/Gateway like the plague. That's about it...

Here are the laptop deals you're searching for:

Gizmodo compiled all the deals on one page.

Another thing is that Gateway laptops don't deserve the negative things people say. I'm actually posting from a Gateway laptop that I got for $1200 and can play 1080p movies and Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 at 1920x1200.

Black Friday items are usually discontinued items or very low end stuff they just want to get rid of. I wouldn't waste my time. Save your money and buy a better quality PC for the same amount of money at Newegg.com

I am considering the Toshiba 16" Laptop listed in that link, what do you think?

http://www.techradar.com/news/mobile-compu...-laptops-651331. My experience of HP and Dell is quite bad. HP's warranty was useless for me as the uber dumb technical support couldn't understand the issues the laptop was having. They're only interested in selling you extended warranty packs.

I have a gateway netbook, and it was easily the best one out when I bought.

If you're buying a netbook, then Acer and Gateway make awsome ones.

Dell and Lenova are absolute junk though.

For laptops, I'd say HP and Toshiba.

Netbooks are the way to go, small, light, long battery life, fairly powerful and Win 7 absolutely flies on em.

But if you're into games, I'd go for a laptop though, screens too small on netbooks for gaming, and Intel graphics cards aren't any good for that. But Gateway makes an awsome 11.6 inch netbook with AMD 64bit processor and ATI graphics card, which I'd imagine is quite awsome, in fact, that'll be the next thing I buy.
