Hi guys,
I have a big fat Dell Inspiron (8.5lbs or so) from a couple of years ago and a Fujitsu 7020 from a year ago. I like the Fuji because it's very light (barely 4lbs.) but the Dell is better built and has a better screen.
I mostly just do email, web, powerpoint, some casual pictures, some word. I don't game and I don't do video editing, etc...
I don't really NEED a new laptop in absolute terms, but I WANT something new and different. I'm just really BORED with the same old square gray box. I really like the new glossy screens and I wish Sony had a computer that came anywhere close to their screens.
Anyhow, I had never considered AW before, but started poking around this forum and they look pretty cool. I'm looking for something well-built (good quality), very nice screen, and not too heavy. I'm a little flexible on size. I was looking at a Dell 630m with a 14.1" widescreen and weighs like 5.5lbs. But I could go 15.4" widescreen if I could find something not over 6.5lbs.
I've been looking at the AW site, but it seems a little overwhelming with so many different models and they don't seem to list any weights for anything. Can anyone help me with a place to start or a few models to consider?
