Stated before? Vaio CW26@RM3999, one of top spec 14'' notebook, at least in malaysia.
Well, how light is lightweight you mentioned?
For 14'', that would be Asus U80V, 2.1kg, still capable of L4D almost high settings.
15'', would be Dell Studio 15

Measurement of what? The physical?
Any screen is capable to view HD, its just a matter of black bar only...

When you watch the movie full screen, there's sometime black bar on top and the bottom of the screen.

and what measurement do you mean? the physical size of the notebook or the ratio? 16:10, 16:9 or 14.0'', 14.1''?

16:10, 16:9 is widescreen
which nowadays all notebook come with this ratio...

yes........

Not really, some are selling cheaper, some are not, depends on shops.

And please refrain yourself from using capital letters, its mean shouting if you do so.

Aoneplus, Startec and Viewnet quite good, though I would just survey all shop if time is enough...

Dell Studio XPS 16@RM3999
Toshiba Qosmio F60@RM3799

Though if you don't mind 18.4'', ordering online and overbudget abit...
Toshiba Qosmio X505@RM4.3k

Well, 15.6'' and above and still under 4k with at least GT230M, is quite limited...
The only option would be Dell XPS 16, Toshiba Qosmio F60, Lenovo Y550 and Acer 5935G.

If you don't mind 14'', there's Sony Vaio CW26@RM3999, i5 520M + GT 330M + 1600x900

Would strongly recommend Asus A42JR/A52JR since it comes with 2 years international warranty by default, though abit over budget, RM2699...

Asus A42JR has better GPU than Acer 4740G which essential when comes to gaming, though it has weaker CPU.

A42JR Core i3 350M + 2GB + 500GB + ATi HD5470
Though there some news about it having Core i5 this March...

As for which has problem..., well every brand has its own problem..
so far Acer 4740G only software problem which been settled with updating the Windows.

Closest would be Lenovo G450 with Nvidia G210M@RM1999 if insist on Nvidia.
Else, Asus K40AB with ATi HD4570@RM1999...

The Dell Inspiron
Performance wise, should be unnoticeable for office work...
Though you might want to upgrade the windows to at least home premium if you want aero effect, e.g. some transparency on the taskbar and window...

Well, the Dell inspiron 13 doesn't have dvd drive. So it depends on you whether you need dvd drive or not.

As for basic colour inside, both of them are pretty similar, gray palmrest and black keyboard. Difference in lid design and colour.

About the screen, haven't seen it myself... so no comment.

Another thing is the CQ35 has metallic touchpad, so its really depends your taste

some picture
CQ35
Inspiron 1320

Well, I would take the dell, since dvd drive also not used much anymore, and it can save on weight as well + plus the onsite warranty from dell~

The dell inspiron 13 vs HP CQ35?
Should be similar since they have the same spec, even if its using T4400, shouldn't be that far off for normal office usage...

If you want dvd drive, you can consider dell vostro 1320...
and also you can try the Live Chat with Dell or call them to ask for discount or freebies

Well, the vostro would have matte screen though...

If want cheap, Dell Mini 10v, RM999, and you can just plug to the monitor via vga...
or you can consider Acer 4736Z@RM1599 or Compaq CQ40-712TU@RM1599 or Dell Inspiron 14@RM1499
or Dell Inspiron 13@RM1399, but no dvd drive built in
