Can anyone point me in the direction of a good forum for laptops, specifically windows? I'm beginning to research for my upcoming purchase and I've found that it can be beneficial to read forums. Any suggestions?
Try the Anandtech, Hardocp and OcUK forums for a start.
get a vaio ux and goto micropctalk.com
www.notebookreview.com and www.notebookforums.com
Both have excellent forums dedicated to manufacturer and models, similar to xda.
Great suggestions have been made already.
I personally like ArsTechnica and notebookreview. Both have forums where people are quite helpful with any questions.

Hi everybody,
Let me introduce myself. I'm M_T_M , your new forum mod for the HTC Wallaby.
I've been on xda-developers for over a year now. Mostly visiting the devices I own and supporting other forums with the experince I've gathered on this great site. Maybe some of you have seen me lately in the forums helping a little.
Now, I'm happy and honored to be appointed to the HTC Wallaby forums to provide mod assistance to all of you in the best way I can to this great community.
I'm here to help you and I expect the same from all of you .
If you experience any other way of approach from members, feel free to contact me through PM, or report the post by using the "!" button in the post.
Additionally, I want to let you know that I'll be doing some forum maintenance (cleaning threads addressing an already discussed topic or an off topic, moving threads or posts to proper sections) for making it easier to all of you get the information you are seeking and keeping the forum clean.
Cheers
thanks my friends
Hey guys. I had nowhere else to ask this question, and this is kind of relevant to the subject matter of the website, so I figured I'd ask it here.
Is there a forum dedicated to programming with a huge user base and an active beginners section? Some perhaps very well known website that most everybody uses?
Thanks for the help.
Here is a good place to start:
Programming Basics

How is that even vaguely helpful? He's asking for something specific, and it's quite a sensible request.
@Bodoma there is a programming forum on here, but it's quite new so not particularly busy. Given time I'm sure it will build up, but there's already lots of people you can chat about programming with and get advice from.

That forum is specific for app development for the platforms we cover on xda.
As for specific coding issues, get familiar with StackOverflow.com. It's a *very* useful resource that most developers are aware of, even if just to leech from it (nothing wrong with reading and learning )

Ooh, I had no idea that forum existed on here. Thanks for the help, Archer. As far as a preliminary glance at what StackOverflow is, it seems like a great platform that I can use to ask a ton of questions and see what kind of answers I get.
I did Google, by the way, but the results that were returning didn't have communities as big as I would like, since popularity is the only way I can tell whether or not the website is reliable, as I do not know enough about the subject matter to use another method of filtration.
Thanks again, I really appreciate it.
hi
nice to see people are having fun and it's nice to be here to see the world come together
Welcome to XDA. Please take a moment to read the XDA Forum Rules.
XDA is one of the largest and fastest growing sites for Android developers in the world, and you'll find a lot of very useful information here. If you want help with your specific device, use the "Manufacturers" link at the top to look for your OEM. You can also search the model of your device to find the appropriate forum.
Thanks for the welcome. I've noticed I find lots of phones through various salvage, trades, etc but most are locked. I'm interested in learning how to circumvent the barriers so they I can give the phones to others who need them. Hopefully I can get them into a usable form first
