    The number of places selling laptops without system or with linux is growing, so I thought I won't have any problem finding my next laptop, but....

    I need a fast CPU (i.e. i7-2670QM or better), wifi n, bluetooth 3.0 (must-have!), no need for cd/dvd and a 15" screen with an intel graphic card.
    My problem is that I don't want nvidia and that seems to be the most common choice for hi-spec cpu. Some of them come with radeons, but again I'd prefer intel.

    Even places that let you configure a laptop doesn't like hi-spec CPU + intel combination.

    Any advice what laptop has a hi-spec CPU + intel graphics card? Or a good explanation why I should go for radeon?

    I found this: ASUS X53SK-SX080, [1] but i'st e/w radeon 7610M
