good notebook

Well the one I am thinking of (Alienware) costs well over 1,000 dollars are you prepared to spend that much money?

I reccomend something from Mead. They've always been a leader in notebooks...

Try Toshiba. I've had good luck with them. The problem is there's not a lot of difference between one laptop or another, at least in the mainstream market. Most Laptops are made by 3rd partys such as Quanta, Toshiba, and a few others and then other companies just put a name on it.

You're not going to get very good performance in max out of a notebook, unless you out of mainstream into the high end, like testing 123 suggested.

Yeah, i had a look at some of the alienware area 51 laptops, they look good enough, got the price down to about 1500 by customizing, and thats alot of $$. As long as can get the job done im happy.

thanks for the feedback everyone.

I dont think you can get a laptop with a 128mb vedio card with a 12" screen!

Try http://www.sagernotebooks.com

They have laptops with a mobile ATI 9600 which has 128mb vedio.

The Sager Notebooks are fantastic. I've had my 2.4 GHZ, 128MB video, 16" screen notebook for a year now. It still rocks with the best of em'. And the prices are not bad at all. Much less than Alienware and these are the exact same laptops that Alienware brands and sells as their own (made by Clevo).

Sager all the way. http://www.discountlaptops.com

I'd wait for the next wave of technology to hit before you buy a new computer. lot of new stuff coming out this year.

true that. but that seems to be true all the time. it's never a good time to buy a new computer.

Yes that's true, technology is always changing and Iv'e waited long enough, it cant be helped really, cause once you buy something today within the next month or so something new comes out.

Thanks Robohead and Gearman for those links, really helps :)

I myself would go with #2. But that could be because I'm a bit partial to discountlaptops.com They're good people.
