Asus v. Thinkpad
Published (2009-11-25 18:28:00)
In fact the UL30Vt has switchable graphics an Turbo33.. But yeah, as stated above they are different marlets. And ASUS is a brand. ThinkPad is a line of laptops (like Dell Latitudes) from Lenovo . How about filling the WNSIB Form? Thanks.

When is the best time to buy?
Published (2009-11-25 22:37:00)
Manufacturers don't share the kind of information with us. Any information you get here is speculation. I'd say if you find something you like and are happy with the price, then buy it. About the best you can do is watch for a while so you'll when prices are actually relatively low. Some manufacturers have price matching if you find a better deal down the road.

Brilliant screen notebook for...
Published (2009-11-25 21:27:00)
The best screens in the world are Dell's RGBLED screens. They're pretty awesome, so if you can bag yourself one of those, you'll be pretty pleased. I know you say you don't like Dells, but from what I hear, their XPS line is pretty solid. Unfortunately, their tech support really sucks, and if the screen breaks, it's an expensive pain in the to fix.

Thinkpad is made specifically for business and has a relatively small line-up of products. Asus makes lots of different laptops from...

Acer Timeline 1810 vs. HP Mini 311
Published (2009-11-25 15:29:00)
Well flash HD video with the current non-beta of Flash 10.0 requires a dual core cpu like the one in the Acer 1810, but latest beta of 10.1 allows gpu acceleration of flash with out really the need for a dual core cpu. My Vaio has the CULV Core 2 Duo SU9300 1.2ghz or so. The Acer 1810 either comes with the Pentium Dual core version of CULV line or a Core 2 Duo clocked at 1.3ghz or so. They are all based on the same architecture, but with...

I have the 4500HD on my Vaio and I have yet to find a video I can't play.
Since its a dual core model it can do video more efficiently.

You didn't say much about what you want or need, which makes it difficult to tell you much of anything. It seems you've got the pros and cons of each machine. You're probably going to have to decide which is more important and go with it.

The 15z (like all the Inspiron z's) is designed to be much more portable
than the "normal" Inspirons. They are physically much smaller, and use
ultra-low voltage processors that are slower, but much more energy
efficient than their normal counterparts.

I'd check out the ASUS G51-VX; it's got the GTX 260M and can be configured
with Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad processors.

You're not going to see a new tablet for $500. Even $1,000 won't get you a decent new tablet. Used is a possibility, but used is always more risky because there's often no warranty. You might want to throw together a desktop for gaming, which will be much cheaper than a gaming laptop and probably better at gaming too, and get a smaller notebook for your portability needs.

FX770m is a great card. performs better than the ATI, and supports CUDA so if you're into using stuff like BaDaBoom it'll benefit.
heat and power consumption is average as it is based on the nvidia geforce 9600M GT
if your looking at that elitebook, might be worth looking at the dell precision M4400 as well.

voted the M4400 because that's the only one i've had real experience
with....and loving it so far. I've seen the 8530 and it seems pretty decent
too. I'd have a look at the warranties that come with both and stuff like
that.

Well if you have the money go for the sager, 280m vs Underclock 260m, dual cooling setup vs 1 fan for all. Screen quality of the asus hasnt been the best according to some owners while i havent seen much complaint about the sager screen. Some people say that sager fans are noiser, while the asus i havent seen much complaints about noise. The asus will probably run hoter and less powerfull than...

I recommend the Sager NP8690 and NP8760.
For SLI, look at the NP9850 with dual 280M's
