Hello! am logging in properly to post tht I have decided on a lappy:

my needs:

basic multimedia (songs and stuff)
some Photoshopping when I'm out
Some coding (for hobby)
some office work (meh... want to sound all important!!)
loads of internetz
small compact size and light weight
a non-nomadic processor
decent RAM
decent HDD (not aiming towards making it a portable storage monster)
Sexy looks
et cetera

With all this in mind, I researched long (which actually means I internet-ted and walked into an IT mall.. actually 5) and decided on the Inspiron 1318.

w00t!!!

the one that I have selected has the following Config:

Intel Core2Duo T5750 (2.0 Ghz, 2 MB L2 Cache)
2 GB DDR2 RAM @ 667 Mhz
160 GB HDD SATA
13.3" Truelife WXGA widescreen display
Intel X3100 intergated graphics (not the best, but worth while)
802.11 a/b/g (not sure about Draft-n)
Bluetooth
DVD-r/w Slot-load drive
2MP Integrated webcam
Windows Vista Home Premium (um.. whatever)

++++++++++++++++

I need to check if my company offers any tie-ups and/or discounts with any vendors that I can utilize, but even if not, I should be getting ready to buy it by this weekend.

Its not the best lappy around, but for its price, its definitely the best 13" laptop available... and it looks schekshy!!!!
