Thinking of getting a laptop but don't really have any idea which to get. Those inspiron from dell have attractive prices but Ive seen them in person and I really can't stand the looks.

1. Brand. - not dell cause i find them ugly

2. Budget. less than 2k, cheaper is better

3. Usage - internet surfing, programming, numerical software, microsoft office, youtube 720p, adobe reader, flash games, movies . Most likely will open those programs together

3. Specs. - integrated graphics is fine
- likes a good keyboard
- prefers good battery life. At least 3 hours 4 is preferred
-Accidental warranty or not being flimsy cause I don't handle stuff very well

4. Size - 13 - 14 inch. Less than 2kg, Full size keyboard please. Need to bring around

Appearance is important.

Thanks

14'' with less than 2kg is only one option, Acer 4810TZ@RM1999
13'' notebook with less than 2K is none other than the Dell Inspiron...

Thank you
But theres so little choices, how about I remove the 2kg weight limit?

Its so hard to choose the proper laptop, the only website with easy to see details and pricing is dell's.

Can anyone recommend me a place to get laptops. Went to lowyat and saw mostly 'rojak' stores. Selling a few models of each brand.
I want to browse through too see which one is suitable for me and most likely make a purchase, main brands that Im looking for = Asus, acer, lenovo
