Well my grandma and my aunty said they would gang up and get a laptop for my birthday. They asked me to find a laptop that i like and they will tell me if they will let me have it.
So here are the specs i would like please:
- Built in wifi
- Minimum 1Gb of ram
- 1.7Ghx+ Cpu
- The shiny display
 (can't remember name i think its called "chrystalbrite" or something)
- Nice design
- Not too thick
- dvd rw+
- USB 2.0 ports
- A decentish GPU
Thats all I can remeber.
Thanks,
Nathan |

RE: Help choosing please.
If I were you, I'd definately get a Mac Book or a Mac Book Pro. Although Mac OSX is the default operating system on both, you can still install Windows on it by downloading a software called Boot Camp. You can only get the glossy display on the Mac Book Pro which also has a more decent graphics card and a sleeker design (IMO). |

Yeah I'd go with Dell. Its much cheaper and you can get what you want for less than you'd pay in a shop. They have fabulous Laptops

I'd have to say go for a Mac Book Pro, it's got everything you're after, they're reliable and you'll have OSX and Windows (using Boot Camp).
Plus they look nice too =p

RE: Help choosing please.
well the current dell laptops have had reports of exploding and current macbooks can burn your legs what a wonderful world we live in  i think that you should just get what you feel is right, bearing in mind it is alot of money that they will be spending on you so i'lll leave it up to you |
