    Personally I am going to have to suggest the w3v, although I am a bit biased seeing how I own one ;) The reasons I will suggest to you are this: the bigger screen, more powerful system, and in a lot of ways, more stylish. To me I find the white colour rather cheap looking, and I can guaruntee you that the w3v at least will get a lot of attention!! I am currently starting university, so the laptop comparaison has already started, so when people look at my system in it's amazing aluminum finish playing half life 2 at full specs, they are in awe.

    For the best answer though, yuo are going to have to decide you really really need a super-light weight portable, because if you don't I would strongly suggest going to the w3v. Good luck!

    first of all thanks for your suggestion johny. however, my question here was askin for a recommended laptop COOLER...lol...but its all good. yea i definately agree wit u on the looks that w3v got, its got both the looks and the specs, but then personally i like the white better, and i always think a white laptop is the most eye catchin out of the crowd, no matter wat ..hehe..
    and yea, white could look cheap, but i think it kinda depends on the material of the case and how "white" is the white..lol...dunno if that sounded right..but yea thats wat i think..~
