If TS is not doing 3d renders, then why not get a full HD monitor in addition to a notebook? Best of both worlds.

Also, why not start a "Why we like/don't like Apple" thread? Bet it will become the most popular thread within 2 days.

Go with whatever brand you feel comfortable with, as long as it has a Sandy Bridge CPU. Buying for any other CPU right now is not worth the money unless you're really on a shoestring budget (below RM 2500).

Edit: And GPU, screen size and resolution don't matter one bit, unless you're doing 3D rendering work in AutoCAD. Go for the Sandy Bridge notebook that can support the most RAM and replace the built in HDD with a fast non-SSD hard drive.

The body is made up from aluminium, it feels nice to the touch but I don't really like the XPS design. But for AutoCAD I would go with this one. smile.gif
