I picked Toshiba. I've owned 2 and have used quite a few more over the last number of years
in work related circumstances (audio/visual).

I can't say that it's "best" because there are others that are just as good, but I've always found them to be reliable and well laid out. Asus makes good ones too and I used to also liked older IBM's because they always just "kept on ticking" and were small and light before small and light became vogue.
