RE: Laptop for Autocad
I wouldn't suggest to buy a HP though. HP is in general, and compared to others, too expensive for what it actually is (you buy more the name HP than you would buy actual features)...

acer, dell, toshiba, fujitsu, sony, msi, ... are among lesser known laptop brands but have quite often killer laptops in their ranges (and configurable like you whish) for nice prices.

I would step away from the configurations and promotions you find in the shops, as they are mostly aimed at an average audiance, and look brand per brand what they can offer.

Once you've found your brand and config, call some resellers. Quite you can make a deal with them to sell you the laptop of your choice below the street price, especially if you say store X or Y offers the same config for a lower price.

At least, that is the experience I recently had when searching and buying mine... (which I get tommorow... hopefully :p)

Also what I've noticed about so called promotions: from all the magazines I went thru with promotions and stuff, only 1 actually had a price below the street price. All others where just the same as the recomended street price listed by the vendors. So, they weren't actual "promotions" at all. So be carefull to not fall for "promotions" and check on the vendor's site for the recommended street price.

The GeForce Go 7200 is indeed not the top notch of laptop graphics cards, just a normal average
