    Ah that explains it. Alright I gotta get back to bed now since I am still in EST, though I am wishing I could be a world traveler like you too!

    Nah, traveling is a pain... Granted, the first class flight was quite comfortable... Still not sure why they sent me first instead of coach, but I don't want to jinx the return trip :)

    Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

              I guess it's a slow day, and it was easy to take a cheap shot at your poor English. I think you meant to ask which laptop is *best* for commercial use. It's a silly question, I am afraid. Any laptop is going to have an AMD or ( more likely ) Intel processor. They will all have RAM that works the same, the only real difference in hard drives is to get a 7200 rpm one, unless you can spring for a solid state one and don't mind having next to not hard drive space. I assume it will run Windows. In any case, you don't define what 'commercial use' is. Is it programming ? Video processing ? Typing Word documents at airports ? These questions would define what your notebook needs to be strong in ( such as processor speed, RAM, video card speed, portability, etc ). At the end of the day, every notebook is a toss up between being light and being powerful, beyond that, if you buy from a company you've heard of, you'll probably be OK, especially if you know enough about computers to not expect to need any help from the manufacturer in using it. Some people have brand loyalties, but, for example, a lot of people hate Dell, but I found their tech support to be first rate in the USA, and also in Australia. So, everyone has an opinion. I hate HP, I'd never buy an HP notebook ( although I recently got a Compaq ). I have 5 notebooks in the house, and none of them is noticably different, as far as I can see.

                            He does but it wouldn't be fair to the other laptops to pick one over the others.

                              Give the guy a break; he obviously can't express or stress things the way he wants to in English. Keyur: Try asking in the Indian forum, you can use your real words in there (the link's at the bottom of the left-hand sidebar).

                                        Woking... Hmm... Think the cars have been taking me right by Woking... I'm staying at a hotel over in Weybridge... Don't know the geography around here though. EDIT: Well, right by signs that pointed to Woking...

                                        Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?
