Well, it depends on your purpose of using and the weather you're living in I guess. Like in high temperature places I would not recommend HP, since it gets hot pretty easy. For designing purpose esp using Photoshop and other photo editing softwares, I would recommend a Mac. However if you are in 3D or vfx or anything that need rendering, Dell Workstation maybe a good choice, I'm owning one atm. I heard that Asus is pretty good for game. The rest of the brands I haven't got a chance to test them yet

Dell computers are pretty reliable, and last for a very long while. Some models may be expensive but it's worth it. Toshiba is another make which should be considered as well. It depends on what budget you're on too. If you visit a store, make sure you look online for the same computer, just in case you can get it cheaper. ^.^

I love Lenovo, very durable. I heard they test the durability by free-falling from a building. Not sure if this is true, but my Taiwanese friend said so (and not only one person too). The price aren't that bad as well, maybe similar to Dell?
Anyway, good luck finding/searching ^ ^

It depends on what you intend to use it for. I have used ASUS, Lenovo, and Dell laptops, and they all are really good in their own ways. I mainly do 3D Rendering and gaming, and all of them seem adequate. Asus in particular is the one you should be looking for, as they have good-end systems for cheap. Dell, however, also has some great choices. The Dell Inspiron are great all-rounders, with a mix of CPU + GPU power, good ram (4-8 GB), and great customer support.
I own a Lenovo as of now, and I have had it for 3 years. Never experienced any sort of problems with it. A laptop with pretty average specs, I was really surprised when it could run ArmA 3, Battlefield 4, and even Titanfall.

I have a gaming computer, and for that I chose a Alienware (which is Dell's gaming brand) and i find myself very very well with it. Have been having it for 2 or 3 years and it's never got any problem.
If you do not need a gaming PC, then i suggest you to just check the specs of the PC you wanna get and choose according to what you need. Keep in mind, though, that laptops are most of the times much slower and troublesome than desktop PC's. So keep that in mind if you don't actually need to move your computer around for holidays or work or whatever!
