Is a asus right for me which one?

I want one with a built in webcam and that I can multitask.
I dont care about the size as long as my palms dont get hott

 

Well, there are many choices based on just that (probably almost all newer ASUS models would fit the bill if that's the case) .... can you fill out the FAQ from the Which Notebook Should I Buy forum? It'd be easier to help you out that way.

It shouldnt get hot on the touchpad or the keyboard or where the palms rest.

 

The only one with standard res, off the top of my head is the V6J ...

 

Resolution dosent really matter to me.

 

I like your A8jm. Can that be one of my choices?

 

I don't see why not, it's your choice

But it wouldn't be 15-16" ...

If you don't mind 14" ... The A8Jm and W3J are great choices, especially if you can go up to $2000.. look at the W3J... it's got better materials and looks compared to the A8Jm + a modular bay for extra battery/HD. But it doesn't have DVI or Webcam like the A8Jm and less USB ports though... so you'd have to weigh the pros and cons of what you need...

And if you can go widescreen on 15.4, take a look at the S96J and Z96J.... you can build it to suit your needs at affordable prices...

 

lol the A8JM can be anyone's choice. For you, you have a large range of choices from expensive to cheap (price wise not quality wise) notebooks. Where to begin...since you won't be gaming, almost everything is available to you...

All the A series, W series (except the W2J) and the new F series can be yours.

The only one I can think off top of my head right now are the W7, A8JM, F3JM, and W5.

I W3 (I know doesn't have a camera) and V6J (I think) doesn't have a built in camera.

You need to be more specific, eg care for screen size? weight? Opps and I forgot the most important one, money, even though the max is 2000, are you willing to save?

 

Ive decided on the Asus S96j

 

Ah another S96j buyer(I remember when I chose it....) It will be awhile for yours to be shipped due to the MASSIVE demand(one of the best selling ones). Its an awsome choice and has perfect build quality and is really upgradedable as well.
