@Fayd, the 4 hour number is the "corrected" battery life. Sad that laptops makers can't spec their products to real world number.

Thanks for the help everyone. At this point I'm leaning towards the T420s as it has a more powerful CPU than the MBA and better resolution and form factor than the X220. It has worse battery life (4 hours vs 9 (X220) and 5.6 (MBA)) but I figure there's not going to be too many places on campus...

Thank you for the advice. I've only ever had a desktop so I didn't know how much power I would need. Looking at ultraportables, Lenovo is have a 15% sale this weekend on ultraportables so I was looking at either the X220 or the T420s. X220: 12.5" 1366 x 768 IPS panel i7-2620M (for the USB...

Background: I will a CompSci/EE major next year and so will be taking notes, watching movies, using the Internets, and some gaming. However, I will be bringing my full desktop rig with me so I don't know how much gaming power I will actually need. However, I want to make sure that when I go...

cool sorry I should have looked harder. Will get the promedias.

I have read the long thread on which new speakers for music and movies but I didn't read anything conclusive on the best ~$120 2.1 speakers for gaming. Both the Logitech Z-2300 and the Klipsch ProMedia's look good but which one do you recommend? Also if there is a good pair of wireless 5.1 for...

Bumpatonic!

I can't decide between the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 or the Logitech Z-2300s. They are both about the same price but I can't decide. I will use Vista and the speakers will be used for gaming. And I know that 5.1 is better for gaming but I don't have enough room but if someone can suggest a good 5.1...

Why would someone need the Blitz Formula over the abit IP-35 pro. I don't upgrade my system very much especially not the mobo which is why I was thinking of getting the Blitz Formula so that i don't have to upgrade my system too much besides the video card, ram etc. Thanks for the advice though...

cool thanks for responding but why would you reccommend that?

As the summary sez I can't decide between abit IP-35 Pro, Asus blitz formula or asus maximus formula. I will OC but not too much. I will use a Q6600 and use a Thermalright ultra 120 extreme cooling. So could someone please give some advice? Thanks for the help :)
