    Toshiba, HP, Acer...been there done that...NEVER EVER again.

    I'm considering LG but haven't heard much about them. I've been told to go toward the light of Thinkpad, Fujitsu, and Asus, but they are pretty much out of my budget.

    So I found the LG F1 express series...and I would like to know a little more about it and LG quality in general. I'm assuming it must be ahead of Toshiba, HP, and Acer! (i hope).

    What is the build construction and durability like? How are they for heat (do you burn your lap?), what about fan noise? Screen quality? keyboard? etc.

    Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    I would usually say great, but if HP and Toshiba are not good enough for you then LG won't be any better.

    naw, anything has to be better than laptops that are DOA like i've had with toshiba and HP.

    Apparently LG is more along the lines of Fujitsu and Asus.
