Hi Here is a quite an expensive option:
http://www.sony.co.nz/products/product/computer/vaio-notebook/vgnz26gnb.jsp 13" Sony Vaio. It is very light, 1.48 kg with battery, quite powerful and really well put together laptop. The reason i mention it is that while it is expensive ($2900 - $3000) it is still a very good deal as Sony and some other suppliers like Noel Leeming are selling remaining stock at this old exchange rate price and all new ones (minor releases) come at new price which is around $4500. Good review here: http://www.siliconpopculture.com/articles/review/sony_vaio_z/ Cheers, Alexei On 31/03/2009 10:38, Paul Bennett wrote: > Hi all, > > My laptop has just died (3.5 yr old low end Compaq - compulsive blue > screening, funny noises and self-rebooting).
