    Small Laptop

    Hi guys

    I know nothing about PC's so need some help...

    Need a really small and light laptop/notebook that is the sort of thing I can put in my bag and not even know its there...will only be used for work use so doesn't need to be anything flash in terms of graphics or cameras etc but does need to be wireless and have a decent capacity.

    This is for use mainly on the move so don;t want to shell out too much cash...

    Any thoughts?

    Also in the market for a wall mounted 42" plasma/lcd and looking at a Samsung for £700 on Dabs.com which seems pretty good value...

    Again, any thoughts?

        P7 - Do Dell still make the X1?
        Was on their website recently but didn't see this on there.

          Ohh, maybe not then! I was looking at them about 8 months ago, guess they have dropped them.

          I guess the next nearest is the d420, I also hear that the Libretto is making a comeback

            It made one, and then disappeared again
            Anyway, it wasn't cheap.

              Libretto - That's a Tosh, right?

              Not a big fan of their laptops, especially the smaller ones, as they charge a fortune for external devices with proprietary connections.

              Oh, and a naff BIOS as well.

                Why not go for a little mac? They are very nice...

                And only about £700 inc VAT:
                Macbook

                  with the plasma, bear in mind that not all plasma/lcds are FullHD, i.e. 1080p. Id only get a Sony Bravia Plasma myself.
