I think I've found Tom's problem. He needs to eat better, he is obviously in a very weakened state and thinks 6-7 pounds is heavy. I happen to have an HP DV series laptop...my wife uses it every day. She is able, despite her 5'1" 120lb frame to take this laptop with ease from kitchen table to desk to living room...over to a friends house..no complaints. And mine is heavier then the one in the advert as it has 2 x 120 gig HD's inside (set to RAID 1 no less). To add to that, she was a heavy mac user, doing page layout/design for several years on one. Still no complaints.
The lack of intellectual honesty coming from the other side on this discussion is disheartening though expected.
