Default Re: Laptop Shopping.

I have an ASUS motherboard with bad capacitors, a bad heatsink bracket (rotted and broke all on its own over time), and proprietary cables which won't work with non-ASUS motherboards. Again, your mileage may vary. I do know there were a number of machines from a large number of companies that got hit with the bad capacitor thing but there's really no excuse for the lousy heatsink bracket or forcing proprietary cables.

This was from a few years ago and is a Desktop. Also if you look up capacitor plague on wikipedia you'll see a very prominent display from a certain ASUS motherboard (It's not mine though). But again, many manufacturers were hit with that, not just ASUS.
