I got an old Acer Travelmate 250, which I think they no longer make :) . It has functioned perfectly well with no errors at all, and my only gripe would be that I can't change the graphics card, since it is integrated into the motherboard and uses shared memory. Just check that before you buy...
:mad: :mad: :mad:
Oh so that's why I never had 768MB RAM - just 752MB (I saw the "shared video part on the page)!
Tip for everyone - never buy the laptop that institutions recommend...
Oh well thanks everyone for the help...however disappointing the result...
EDIT: I just had a thought...
I would go for an Acer Travelmate 8005 LMI laptop as it seems pretty decent :
- it has a 15" screen (with a 1400 x 1050 res.) which isn't too bad.
- Graphics is definitely acceptable and it should be able to handle most games.
- Has a battery life of up to 5 hours.
- Has only 512MB RAM, but...
I would take the Klipsch ones on the basis that Klipsch sounds so cool :rolleyes: .
If you can't hear any sound difference, then let things like physical appearance be taken into account.
