    Im thinking of a new laptop and am looking for some suggestions please...

    Im not a gamer, or a pacticularly heavy user. Mostly just web browsing, word processing, watching/burning DVDs, the usual non-techie user. I want a hardrive of 100 or 120, a 15"(ish) screen, and most importantly, it has to be reliable. I want something that'll last a good few years before it starts giving trouble. I've had a few sony's and IBMs over the years and they're still running, but my 1 year old Acer POS is giving trouble already.

    I don't want a Dell because I think they look pretty crappy, and I definitely don't want another Acer because those b*stards arent getting any more of my money.

    I saw this one over on laptopsdirect:
    http://www.laptopsdirect.ie/Sony_Vaio_N21E-W_Laptop_VGN-N21E-W/version-1.asp
    The only problem i see with the Sony is that it's running Vista and only has 1Gb - but I have a 1gb card already, so i can up it to 1.5 straight away if that will help.

    Any opinions, or other suggestions? The sony is about E900, that's pretty much as high as i'll go.
    Cheers:D
