Hey everyone, here's my new, updated version of criteria for selecting a laptop:

Brand: Any reliable brand

Budget: RM4,000

Specs: At least running a Sandy Bridge processor

Size: 13.3" to 14.0" and less than 2.0kg

Purpose:

- Surf the internet
- Create documents, presentations, etc (for school/college)
- Watch 720p Blu-Ray movies

Extra Notes:

- I'm planning to bring it wherever I go.
- Back-lit keyboard is a major advantage.
- Battery life should be as long as possible, preferably more than 6 hours on a single charge (surfing the internet with Wi-Fi connection OR watch 720p Blu-Ray movies).
- I plan to get this laptop sometime in June, but I am willing to wait for a better model that's coming out soon (if applicable).

I think that's it.

Thanks for recommendations!

higher resolution = more pixels to display = more work for the GPU

u can play at lowered resolution, say 1600x900, 1366x768 or 1280x720... but it's not going to look pretty on a Full HD monitor though...
