is really REALLY good.

I have an HP Pavilion and I'm pretty satisfied. I heard Toshiba wasn't that bad either.

If Acer Travelmate line still out the market you should look for them, they are very small physically, about half the size against those dorm room desktop replacement laptops.

For light, i custom build laptops under 4 lbs and they use 2gb ram, intel core 2 duo cpu, 160gb 5400rpm hard drive, and built in wireless.


Message me if you are interested.

If you don't care how much you spend, by from Apple (some of the lightest computers in the world). You can buy a program for $100 to run Windows on it but I wouldn't do it if I were you. If you want to buy a regular computer don't buy a Dell because they treat you like crap once you buy it, and its ridiculously over priced. I've heard great things about HP, or you can try Sony. Good luck in your search for the perfect computer.

also, any new laptop will have windows vista on it. vista is a resource hog, and won't play nice with anything less then 1 GB of ram. Two gigs would be better. The HP's are indeed good machines, and something in the 15.4" screen size isn't too terribly heavy while being good for vewing.

IBM ThinkPad. Pick the one that suits you best, they are all great:

Well, I am not sure what your price range is, but the MacBook is a great choice.
It is very fast, USUALLY never gets viruses, lightweight, great applications (iMovie, iDVD, iTunes, GarageBand, etc.), you can purchase Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Entourage. It has a built-in webcam for recording videos, taking pictures or video conferencing. I would go for the one with 1GB of Memory, it's about $1099. The one with 512MB of Memory, I believe is $999. Please, consider the MacBook. It is a great machine and I am very glad with my purchase!

You must spend your money for the best brand.

As I know HP and Dell are the best in laptops for a long time and they are very reliable too. I trusted HP and I bought a HP laptop 2 years before, and still like the day I bought it. Didn't even have to service it at least once up to now.

I recommend you to buy a HP (with experience) or Dell laptop.

On www.hp.com you can even customize your laptop. And also you can check the price.
