thanx 4 ur advice and am going 4 dell but can u guys tell me whether the lg desknote is good or not.i like that 1 too cuz of its 19"screen and pls tell me which one is better
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 (256MB VRAM, *HyperMemory™ Support) or 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS .
Moreover LG got 320GB (SATA II, 7200rpm, 300MB/sec data transfer rate) while dell got just 250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive.
And finally the proci of LG is Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T5750 (2.0GHz) while that of dell is Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T8100 (2.1GHz).
so which 1 should i choose.

nah. I don't prefer LG notebooks.

Go for Dell/Sony/HP/Toshiba/Acer.

For your budget, go for Dell.
