I will be entering college this fall and would like to purchase a notebook in june, july, or august. I absolutely love the Acer Travelmate 8204, but after hearing of ALL of the problems it has been having, I am reluctant in making that purchase. That being said, I would like a notebook with basically the same exact specs as the Acer Travelmate 8204, but without all of the problems. I want a 15.4 inch wide aspect screen, WSXGA or WUXGA (glossy screen would be a plus). I want an Intel Core Duo Processor (2.0 Ghz +). 1-2 GB ram, 100 + GB harddrive 7200 RPM, ATI X1600 256 MB graphics card (or NVidia equivalent), internal wireless, no more than 6.5 lbs, and decent battery life (atleast 3 hours). I do not want to purchase from Sager, HP/Compaq, and Gateway/eMachines. Please help me find this perfect laptop.
Note: I will be willing to go for a 17 inch screen if the weight is still no more than 6.5 lbs.
