Recommend a Notebook?

I have the budget of $1000.

I want to do CS3 and Visual Studio work on it, so memory and cpu speed is important. Hard drive capacity is semi-important but it doesn't to be extreme. Previously installed software (such as anti-viruses, vista, etc) is of no importance to me if it means the price goes higher.

I've been looking at the AlienWare notebook models, and I'm wondering is there any reason I should buy the Sentia m3450 over the Area-51 m5550? Or could anyone recommend a different, better notebook to buy for this budget? Tell me if you need more information.

Thanks.
 
id say look at the HP notebooks. i have the dv9000t (17 inch) and love it.


for you id look at the HP Pavilion dv6000t (15.4 inch) series ($579.99 starting price)
just make sure u get one of the 3 Core 2 Duo processors (T5300, T5600 or T7200) that they offer along with 2 gigs of RAM. that should put it right at $1000 dollars. o and id get the Go 7400 Graphic Card for an extra 50 bucks as well.

Thanks for the suggestion. Any reason why not to get an AlienWare?

Oh and is a 256MB NVidia® GeForce™ Go 7600 graphics card worth and extra $240 rather than a 128MB ATI Mobility™ Radeon® X1400 graphics card ?

Yeah I wish I had an extra 550 to spare, but I don't. :P

Oh lol I missed that that was in Canadian dollars. Still 470 extra is out of my reach.

Get a Mac. Once you get used to it you'll never want another PC based laptop again. The only reason I have any PC based laptops is to sell them once I get them working right.
