Are you sure 512mb of ram will suffice? I think the standards these days is 1G of ram and 2G on some better laptops.

Yep. Min spec should be 1GB RAM and 60GB drive.

ASUS has some good deals in the low end in WCC

anyone know how much they are though?

We paid 9800 for a Samsung Q35 laptop with dual core pentium processors, 1.5gb of ram, 100GB hard drive, full wi-fi and blue tooth wireless connectivity, dvd burner, very light weight and perfect for travel.


Pretty impressed by the speed in which it runs, it renders DV footage in about half the time my home pc does, which really is saying something.

How is Samsung for bloatware? Sony installs a fair bit of its own stuff.
