    In fairness, the one in PC World is a 60gb, a 1.7GHZ Centrino and a Sony! I'd say the sonys performence would be a great deal more then that laptop. Comparing the two doesnt really work, cos they are in different leagues.

    They have some nice 14" HP machines for 1399, which are 1.7 Centrino's with 512mb/60GB/128mb/wifi/bluetooth

    But worth 1500eur more? I think not...
    AMD's arent all that bad either.
    I was basing them on being "portable" style laptops, thats all..
    Yeah I saw the HP one too.. it's nice alright..I thought it had 80GB though..
