I am in the market for a laptop computer and since a free Win7 upgrade can be had with most purchases at the moment, I figure now is as good of a time as ever. I need the computer for school and work and I would like something with a generous amount of power, but nothing ridiculous. I am looking to spend under $900.
So I've been looking around but I am still heavily undecided and open for recommendations. I'd like something with at least 16" screen space, 4GB RAM and it must have a dual core processor! Don't really care if it's AMD or Intel-based, but i'd like to stay above 2.0Ghz. I need the computer to render 3D, burn DVDs, and do a respectable amount of multitasking. As far as disk space goes, 250GB+ is fine. I would prefer a 64-bit version of Vista Home Premium but I can be flexible.
I've been looking at a bunch of Acer, ASUS, and Toshiba models but I really can't decide. So, if anyone has any suggestions, post 'em up! I'd like to buy something in the next few weeks. Thanks in advance.
