I love Evernote and use it on many platforms. I can't imagine how to use it as a Delicious replacement.

My current laptop needs the motherboard replaced, which is too expensive and not really worth it to me for a laptop that I find too heavy to actually take anywhere easily. I was looking at this one today, which is really more than I want to spend right now, but it seems like a good compromise between the power of a laptop and the portability of a netbook. However, I'm really not very knowledgeable when it comes to buying computers, so I would love some feedback.

sj, that seems like a decent computer, but expensive for something that small.

And, a follow-up, if I may: I am trying to choose between the Lenovo IdeaPad Z570 and the Toshiba Satellite L750 with comparable specs (i5, 4 GB RAM, 750 GB HD [would probably get less HD with the Toshiba because I don't need that much]). I've never had a laptop before, and they both have their nice features.

If you search back on this thread you will find that friends of mine have had truly horrendous experiences with Lenovo service. It appears to be a very recent change. In all fairness others on this thread think Lenovo gives no worse service than anyone else. Other than that both are quality computers.

Yeah, I was a little surprised when Google Shopper reviews were saying they had the worst customer service, whereas this site found they had great customer service. And, again, with Toshiba, raves in some places and WORST EVER in other places. We use Lenovo ThinkPads at work, so I figure they can't be terrible, although any "tech support" is through the IT department (who, naturally, recommended I buy a Lenovo, as did the guy at Best Buy and Office Depot, which was new after most people on Facebook were championing Toshiba).

Lenovo gives no worse service than anyone else

...So basically everyone is terrible! Heh.

Well again, this is a very recent change. So Lenovo may have been no worse than everyone else 4 months ago, and added a whole new level of suckitude recently. Basically they have started routing their service through China, and that takes forever and serviced stuff comes back with malware. Which is new to Lenovo and worse than everyone else.

P-C, my computer with a dead motherboard is a Toshiba and one of the tech guys I spoke said he felt all Toshibas are crap.

Ha, and Dana, Liese, and dcp all love their Toshibas! This whole thing must be a crapshoot. There's no right or wrong choice, I guess.

Oh, there's a wrong choice, all right. And that wrong choice is HP. There's just no right choice.

so much WROD, Liese!! (i love my Toshiba too!)
