I've had an Asus laptop for 3 years and it has been on for weeks at a time (not sleep mode... but actually ON and running). I also had the screen crack in my bag and a hard drive failure at one point and ASUS's warranty and customer service was actually really good on timing and service. It was honestly the least hastle I've ever had getting a piece of tech re-worked by a major company (well.. tied with my RROD'd 360).

I'd recommend ASUS for sure and tell you to stay away from Acer, Dell, HP, MSI and Toshiba. I'd also recommend Lenovo. Although the Thinkpad brand has diluted since moving from IBM to Lenovo, they're still very well spec'd machines with excellent damage prevention measures and great design (well.. I'm a really vanilla guy so I like the design) for reasonable prices.

I don't get why everybody says there is something wrong with Toshiba, what is wrong with it?  If you read the article I linked in my previous post, you will see Toshibas are actually very reliable machines.

I think the only problems I've heard people complain about are heat issues. My friend got an ASUS notebook because his Toshiba always ran too hot when he was playing HoN.

Oh, well I've heard a little bit about that.  Overall, my computer stays relatively cool, but if you feel by the fan, there is usually a LOT of heat coming out of it, so I just make sure I don't block it at all and have had 0 problems.

Edit: And to be completely honest, my dad's older Sony Vaio gets a lot hotter than my Toshiba does.
