Nice to see some rationale. Brother has a good reputation, and I understand their after-sale service is good. I understand the concept of "planned obsolescence", but Brother and HP were night and day different when it came to writing Windows7 drivers for their XP-designed units.
In addition to Brother, Canon also puts out a few very good units. But it would still be helpful to know more about how you plan to use the machine.
