I bought mine from Bureau en Gros at Place Dupuis(Berri-UQM MTR) about a month ago, sales there are very knowledgable and friendly. I'm still happy with my new laptop. Dell would have been a good choice also. Good luck and have fun!
If you are not doing much on laptop, u may want to check out the $499 laptop from the clearance place in West Island. Advertisements in both Metro and 24 hours(free little newspaper at MTR) today and yesterday. Good luck and have fun!
