Why do I not like a single fucking laptop being sold right now? Seriously, I've been to three stores, I've searched online, I don't like anything I've seen. I just want a power cord on the side of the computer rather than in the middle of the back, a mouse track pad that will respond to my thumb so that I don't have to take my fingers off home row to select anything, and an Intel processor.

Does anyone have a laptop that they love? I've always had Dells, and I've never used a HP that didn't have this problem with the tracking pad; if I change the sensitivity options on my mom's then it jumps around selecting things willy nilly.

This is so frustrating I legitimately think I might cry. I just want a new computer, why is it this hard?

Same here, I've only ever had Dells and two of the three have had side cords, but I can only find one business model right now that has that feature, a Vostro, and I know nothing about them. I don't remember what the first one I had was, the second was an Inspiron (least favorite) and the one that just died was a Latitude and I loved it. I had a 6 cell, and it's 3 years old and my battery life was still 3.5-4 hours.
