You are looking to buy a laptop on a budget and want to save money by not purchasing an extended service agreement with the manu
facturer beyond the first year. What should you consider when choosing manufacturers to limit your search? Which manufacturers would you choose and why?
Since you probably are looking forward to maintaining and repairing the laptop yourself after the warranty has expired, you will need to gain access to the product's documents and spare parts. For this reason, you should choose manufacturers such as Lenovo and Dell. These allow anybody to access their service manual on their sites for free while also letting available documentation about the way to dismantle their computers and other alternatives to buy spare parts somewhere else than their authorized service centers.
