    Dear Friends

    At last i got one Hp dv9820ea for 550£, i like the laptop the looks are great but i am disappointed by the movie playback..with such a great meory 3 gb and Navida 8400 graphic card with graphic memory of 1500 mb. its really a disappointment. well it could be because of the processor (AMD Turion 64x2 TL 60 2.0 Ghz).. what do u think.. actually when a movie is played the frame rates are slow and even the windows functions are slow..well it could be because of windows vista...

    I can return it in 7 days (dilevery date 20th June)...

    I have one more option i can buy a HP dv9720ea foe 499£ with a config of 2GB ram, Navida 7400, Graphic memory storage 500 MB, with a processor of AMD 64x2 TL-64 2.2 Ghz, 250 gb hard disk..17 inch wide screen same like dv9820ea.

    Another option is Dell XPS
    Dell XPS M1530 core2duo T5550 1.83GHz laptop, vista premium, 1GB Ram,128mb 8400M GS, 120GB, 8X DVDRW, wifi, 2.0mp camera, 15.4 widescreen (1280x800) display with truelife and travel remote £421.94 (£405.06 after quidco)
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/203177/dell-xps-m1530-core2duo-t5550-1-83g/

    Please help me make a decison as ur know computers ver well.

    Regards
