How bout processor vs. power consumption? You dint mention bout it… as i know amd grab more power than the intel one… choosing a rite processor for ur notebook is essential too(the battery life)^^…

hi Goldfries,

First of all…great article!

I’m looking for a lightweight (possibly small, 13.3″ – 12.1″) laptop with a decent performance. The budget is around 4.5K to 5K. Read about IBM Thinkpad X300 but the price is so steep. What about Vaio SZ…is it worth getting it? I’m a big time Linux user so a laptop without Windows OS would be great. Brand wise…IBM is the priority but HP and Sony will do too. Any laptop would you recommend to me? Thanks

How much are you willing to spend?

Even the low range could support some games but generally you’ll need to get one with higher end card (and more costly) if you’re picky into getting more graphic details from your games.

The Dell’s XPS range do comes with 8600 series graphic system if I’m not mistaken. Just managed to use my friend’s units a few weeks back.
