Laptop Buying Guide

My dear readers,

As always my effort and focus is to save you time and money while providing useful content. This project is about getting you the latest information about current notebook models in the market. I attempt to keep this site as a one stop shop for assistance in buying a suitable notebook from among so many makes and models available in the market.

Till recently I noticed many of the commercial and non commercial websites that educate the consumer in the proper selection of notebooks focussed entirely on the technical aspects of the notebook. They talk about the importance of CPU, amount of installed memory in the notebook, the size of the screen etc and not so important details of the hard drive (its size), optical drive, and the type & number of ports available that would meet the needs the user.

Their efforts were commendable in bringing an awareness in the buyers of notebooks and my expertise would count for nothing compared to their vast database of knowledge and experience. But I know enough to say that, try as they can, they can only reach an unknown average user in such a dispensation of knowledge. The reason being it is not interactive. Users like you and me don’t get a chance to communicate our requirements and get an instant feedback as to which makes and models would meet our requirements.

Each user is unique in his requirements and it would be difficult for an online consultant to sit on a one-on-one basis to educate and justify his recommendation that would ideally meet a client’s needs for a notebook. One website has come close to remedying this situation by, taking exhaustive input from a potential notebook buyer and provides a complete list of makes and models that would go to meeting his(her) needs.

But here the user’s needs are given focus, but he or she is kept in the dark about the rationale behind the choices. You may say,I don’t care about the details, all that I want is a notebook that would meet my needs. But tell me honestly, don’t you want to know why a particular CPU is better than the next or why a smaller or a bigger hard drive makes sense in your case.

I am not saying this website (at least not in its current state) will strike a perfect balance between user’s needs and the technical specifications of notebooks available in the market, though it is my ideal.

This means eventually you need to look nowhere else for additional information. Just narrow down your choice to just one or two notebook(s) based on your own criteria and go buy it at the best possible price and terms. Ofcourse I will be there with you every step of the way providing useful tips.

Till such time please bear in mind that this site is evolving, and I will not spare myself to make continuous improments. So in your first visit should you feel that this site is inadequate in some respects, try me again in subsequent visits. I guarantee you that it would have moved one notch up atleast in terms of professional standards.

In the meantime feel free to drop me a feedback about your experience at rayan@iamyourguide.com

Now I let you go to my Laptop Buying Guide webpage.
