hmm, i guess he would want at least a 15" instead... i still remember my mum complains that the fonts on my 14" monitor is too small...  so yeah, likes of Dell Studio XPS 16, BenQ S57 and Acer 5935... can't run away from these... but u definetely dun get a thin laptop here if u want performance...

still Asus K40Ab for me... for AMD CPU, the difference in cache between Athlon and Turion has little effect on performance... it's all abt speed when comes to AMD...
the advantage on Turion is that it has 1 more P-state than Athlon, thus it can saves more power...
but if u re one who likes to play games, u definetely will appreciate wat HD4570 can offer...

There's no guarantee in this world, you could get a Sony or Mac and they can phailed you in 1 weeks. I can just say Asus have very good build quality for their mobo and graphic card and I expect the same for their lappie.

Asus K40Ab, Compaq CQ40, Acer 4736...
