Thread Starter 
Well my M170 is too big to bring on any trips i am now realizing and have to downsize a little. Im looking for a notebook with these things in mind

-12" to 15.4" Widescreen
-Duo Processor
-Dedcated graphics preferably more than a 7400
-atleast 1GB
-atleast 60GB

I was looking at the m1210 which looks nice but i wanna c if there is anything with a better graphics cards and a little bigger screen.

Price has to be $1400 or less.

Thanks,Matt

As an advice, narrow the screen size a bit more. That shows that you're unsure about what to get, and if you get something you're not sure about, you may regret yet another decision.

You seem to like something up to 14". The MSI 1022 is a good option (NV 6200 and no Core Duo), but I didn't see option for Core Duo on the store I looked at (disappointing).

And of course, you can get good GPUs on 15 systems, but you will face the weight and size problem again.

@Shadowmage: I thought about the W3J, too, but I don't think you can get it at a price below $1400. Am I wrong?

omg! i have almost the exact same needs as you! i have also been looking at the dell xps m1210, but trust me, the screen is too small to play games with. it sounds like your a gamer too, since you are looking for something with a dedicated GPU. i think the best for you (and me) would be a 14". the w3j is around $1800. and you cant find it any cheaper than that unless its used. ive looked at everywhere for a W3j, but theyre all expensive... so i guess were in the same boat... ill tell you if i find a laptop that suits your needs.
