The IT show starts today, and I'm thinking of getting one. I'm a gamer, but I think I'd like a bit of mobility and utility. Buying a laptop may end up saving me more money as I won't have to buy a media center when and if I do get a HD TV for watching movie on. I was originally dead set on getting an Asus, but then I can across this: http://www.bootstrike.com/itfairsg/pcshow2...ochure-leaflet/ The 5820TG-432G50Mn. An I5, with a decent graphics card, according to http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphi...List.844.0.html , 4GB RAM and only $1400. Seems like a steal. The closest Asus has to offer is this: http://www.bootstrike.com/itfairsg/pcshow2...ochure-leaflet/ Slightly better processor, but a much weaker graphics card. And 14". I'm a man, I don't mind my things being bigger and heavier (*hint hint*) The Acer also seem to have better free gifts... But I'm worried about the reliability, because I've heard people complaining about Acer overheating or motherboard dying.....

Got a new job tt requires me to travel to several sites a day. Is it better to get a coe car at 4-5k n drive to august 2011 or a 20k 2-3 years old car better?
