That looks like the list for my Laptop replacement ;) - except that I want an Core i7 processor. But those are surprisingly rare currently (I hope the CES is changeing that at the moment) One thing to remember when switching from PC to a laptop: even with dedicated 3D acceleration the performance of those chips is one to two years behind those from the PC graphic cards. This might bite you if your panel has a high resolution and you want to use features like antialiasing (or playing modern high end games). That's probably not a show stoper but worth to remember. CU, Chris PS: Brand wise I'm usually sticking to Acer as those seem to have the best value for money (at least a few years ago that was) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREIAAYFAktHYNsACgkQoWM1JLkHou2ydwCfXeoOaeLkl9innptL/S+hIbYR aukAn1f03DKFllfUWiwudBqUYMfzgY4X =9bos -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
