Looking for a simple laptop to carry to school, and i am looking for a 15" screen. 512mb ram is fine, a decent sized HD, no need for a great graphics card, since it'll be mostly school stuff, maybe DVDs. since i've got my main system at home. The only other requirement is wireless, but every system and their mothers have wireless these days so it's almost a moot point. recommendations ?
Update, i went to the store and saw a Sony Vaio that i really liked too, i'll spec them out here
Core duo 1.66ghz
i THINK theyr'e both 80gb
1GB Ram
15.4" Screen
Wireless
DVD burner
The dell i can get for 1,199, which includes a 4 year warranty, since i get a discount through school
the sony is 1099 without warranty(it's another $300 if i want it for four years)
the HP and the compaq i saw were speced a bit lower: less ram and only a cdburner, but were only $700 + warranty
