    Hey gang,

    I've been spending some time reading the forums for a new purchase, and have come to like the UL80VT, but I'm not a real hardcore gamer (I have a PS3, Wii and desktop for that). But I do like the CULV thin and light thing.

    Is there an Asus laptop that is similar to the UL80VT but without the dedicated graphics? Was thinking I could either save a little money, or perhaps spend similar and get a nicer screen or something.

    I'm also not stuck on the Asus, so if you guys would care to say what other laptops you considered when shopping for a thin and light Asus, I'd appreciate it. Do you think the MSI X-slims are worthy of consideration?

    I've always loved IBM's. WIfe just got a T400 and I can't say I'm all that impressed with the screen, although its a nice laptop other than that.

    Thanks in advance!
    Aaron

    Check out the UL80Ag-A1. It has an integrated graphics card.
