Hi,

I am undecided between the following
1.Acer TravelMate 1353FLC Athlon 2.4 and
2.243fxc smaller screen celeron 2.5

My main uses ar watching DVD movies, bit of photoediting internet and e-mail.

Any suggestions which processor would be better?
 
Thanks Soulkeeper,

Any chance of getting a wide aspect notebook at about 1000$? for DVD movie?

Another qustion the specs of some do NOT mention S Video out. Then how do you connect to a TV?
 
never ever buy a celeron. You should read the review on this site regarding the celeron. An duron 1600 will OWN a celeron at 2.8.
 
HP zv5000 15.4" wide screen, P4 2.4ghz notebook for $934 after rebate, 10% off coupon and free shipping@HPshopping.com. It expires tomorrow so hurry! If you want the 10% off coupon and how to apply it you'll have to turn on your private messages button as it's against forum rules to post them here, or you can google HP coupons and find it I'm certain.
 
eMachines also sells an Athlon XP widescreen for close to $1K. The Toshiba Pentium M widescreen looks nice, and will probably be more reliable than the comparable HPs/Compaqs, but it's probably closer to $1300 without rebates.

And stay away from Celerons if you plan on doing any computationally-intensive work at all.
