| 721313 | 2008-11-18 22:46:00 | Hi Would welcome some advice on choosing a new laptop - not very computer savvy but have to use it every day and travel a lot overseas to tradeshows - also am getting older and the fingers are not quite so nibble as used to be from years of typing. This is what I need: 1. To use it in my office most days, but also travel with it about 1/3rd of the time. 2. Decent battery power to use on plane and airport and in vehicles. 3. Lightweight - sick of carrying my dell inspiron 510 around. 4. Reasonably fast - I do not play games or really watch videos, but do run many programmes at a time and currently the laptop crashes and locks a lot. Price is not a consideration - getting a good laptop is! Thanks. |

| 721317 | 2008-11-19 05:59:00 | I bought my wide a Toshiba L300 the other week. Came with Win XPPro and 2 gig ram. Goes very well for the price of about $850 after cashback.. Asus would be my next choice.. | paulw (1826) | ||
