Choosing an Ultra Portable Laptop

    Right, I’m looking for any advice, peoples experience, any two cents worth etc.

    I’m looking to buy a laptop that’s nice and portable. I’m looking at models with 10/12inch screen mainly and external dvd/cd drives. My budget is up to €1,800 but would rather spend less unless it’s gonna make a big difference.

    So far (haven’t been looking long) I’m considering the Acer Travelmate 382TMi (It’s about €1700). An earlier model of this laptop got a pretty good review in PcPro a few months ago.

    and the Asus S5200N (around €1,200) which got quite a good review on Tomshareware.com (cept the battery life).

    Anyone have any experiences of the above laptops or any or recommendations of other models?

    Did you try the search function? Go on - try searching this forum for the word "portable". You could then try reading the threads "Anyone recommend a very portable laptop?" and "Need help choosing a portable / thin'n'light laptop"
