    well, i dont own an a series, but i think i know why ppl get the s series, because it is a notebook with pretty much the same features as the a series, even the 9700 graphics card, so people go for more compact/same quality. the only difference i see is i think there was a dvd burner difference and of course, the tv tuner/p.replicator.

    personally i would prefer the a series over the s.
