    Hi,

    I ordered this laptop... and still waiting for it.

    What you need is related to what you're planning to do with it!

    As for the antivirus program, i'm using avast or avira. They are free for home use and quite efficient as the reviews show.

    I'm using avira now, which is good and light. The only annoying thing is the daily popping ad (nearly full screen).

    By the way, can you give us the exact ati card specs (using GPUZ for example) ?
