Default Re: laptop freezing

msft spyware found nothing. anti-vir found nothing. so I reformatted my hard drive from the ibm system recovery partition. it froze while installing windows. I guess that means it's a hardware problem. I think the system board was replaced right after I got the machine for some problem (apparently early A31P's had a problem...). I'm just about ready to put it out the window.

if you wanted the best, most reliable laptop out there what would you get? I thought that was supposed to be IBM. now my faith in them is lost. recent dells I've seen seem junky. is there not a boutique manufacturer out there that does good work? or is it a hideous fact of life that computers have a lifespan of 2 to 3 years (and I don't mean obsolescence)?
