    Cant paste links from the HP site but they're in there under home/office I think.

    Id slate Tosh for a few things but not build quaility. Graphics going (esp on board) is pretty rare. I take it u dont have the 3 yr warrenty? Its standard on their high end models.

    Thing to remember about laptops is that they are WAY more liklely to go wrong so the warenty is uasaly woth the extra cash.

    I bought the top of the range model 2 years ago and only got a standard 1 year warranty

    Would you not be better building one? It would probably be cheaper than buying one.

    Windows Media Center is a specfic version of XPO and needs fairly specfic hardware so its easier to buy (esp when im not paying for it!)
