I intend to buy a laptop for general use - this includes games - and I found the MSI S420 at a reasonable price. As usual, I don't purchase a component without asking for advice from you guys. So, any S420 owners out there?
CHIPSET ATI RC410ME - NAPA
INTEL CORE DUO T2050 1.6GHz - upgrade to T2400
14.1" WXGA 768x1280
ATI Radeon Xpress 200M
512MB DDRII 533MHz
80GB 5400

Edit: Found a better one: LG P1. here are the specs:
LG P1-JDUOE:
T2400 1.83GHz 2MB L2 Cache 667MHz Front Side Bus 65nm 31W POWER
945PM Chipset
15.4" WXGA (1280x800) GLARE, Fine Bright Technology
ATI ® New Mobility ? Radeon ® X1400 128MB PCI express
1024MB DDR2 667MHz,(2x512) Dual Channel Support, Up to 4GB
SATA 100GB/5400RPM
Super Multi Dual Layer DVD-R/RW+ R/RW,RAM
And it looks pretty good.
