Haha..thanks! Well, to me it depends how important battery life is to you, and whether you play games on it.

If you're planning to travel alot, my suggestion: get the Dell Latitude D630. It's 14 inch, and comes with the intel X3100 graphics or the quadro 135M..but what's remarkable is it's crazy battery life. CNet's test unit clocked 4hr 45 mins with the integrated card and 9 cell in the DVD battery drain test..6+ hours of normal usage is possible. It's slightly heavier than the asus, but with that kinda battery life, you won't have to bother bringing the notebook charger. Besides dell's spare batteries are cheaper compared to asus's. Also do check out the Vostro 1400 or Inspiron 1420. They have 4~5 hour battery life.

Battery life aside, the 8400M G card is pretty weak in terms of gaming performance, with nearly the same performance as last gen's 7400M. IMHO, notebooks just aren't meant for gaming..

Those thing's aside, the F9S is a solid performer.. I haven't really compared it with anything else, but for it's rm4999 price, it's really hard to beat.. I'd say go for it!
