DELL has this warranty thing that i think is really good some sort of cover all warranty it fixes/replaces your laptop if something happened to it by "something" i mean accidents...things that happen unintentionally for example, spilling stuff onto your laptop but if its stolen then its not covered cos thats considered an intentional act by somebody...and also then DELL will pokkai cos everybody will report their laptop is lost  haven't actually made use of this warranty yet but thats what they claim edit: "good" This post has been edited by huh: May 18 2004, 07:24 PM

i read on asia.cnet that the acer ferrari's performance is not very good
| QUOTE | | Acer also offers a 128MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 graphics card, which is great for playing the latest 3D games, will not support the latest DirectX 9 drivers. |
| QUOTE | | While Ferrari is usually synonymous with speed, the Acer notebook didn't live up to that name. It managed an average score of only 143 for MobileMark2002 and 134 for SYSmark2002, which is equivalent to Centrino systems with Pentium M 1.3GHz or 1.4GHz processors. In terms of 3D graphics acceleration, the Ferrari did not disappoint, clocking more than 6,300 points in 3DMark2001SE tests. This performance should interest casual gamers and multimedia users. |

I'm also looking for a laptop and the only problem is that I found out that only Acer 8003LCi have a 128 video card on board. Anyone out there is using this. Need some comment on this brand as not familiar with Acer.
I will use the laptop for mostly graphic ie video editing and the occasional games.
Cheers.

if you don't mind laptop being huge and heavy, then i suggest the dell inspiron 9100 since you're on that budget the inspiron 9100 is affordable the wuxga screen is beautiful it also comes with 128mb mobility radeon 9700 but it seriously lacks battery life check out the specsand also you might want to read reviews on http://asia.cnet.comcheers
