WHEN BUYING A LAPTOP, YOU REALLY HAVE TO CHECK THEM OUT IN PERSON

Usually, when a client asks me what laptop should they buy, I'll jot down a top 10 list, and suggest that they go to Best Buy, Office Depot, Fry's, etc. to see how the screen looks, and how well the keyboard responds, etc.

Then I'll point them to Amazon.com to see if they can find the same laptop at a better price. But what tests could you run in the store? PC WORLD has an article just for you, HERE.
