Notebook recommendations

Jeranon · 2000-02-19T23:43:15

Hi, This will probably be answerable by few because these darn things are so amazingly expensive but... What''s a good notebook in terms of LCD quality, battery life, performance, portability and value? What''s it going to be used for, I hear you ask? Well, I plan to use it for mobile programming, playing old games (pre-3D days), reading pdf, word, xls type documents, and listening to mp3s. Any suggestions?

You can. Sony has an online service based in the USA and UK. Unfortunately, this is bad for any tech support to occur seeing as I''m in Australia. However, I''ve also heard that Sony''s battery life ain''t that hot... These are the two things stopping me from leaning to wards the Sony.

BTW, interesting post timestamp you have up there firahs
