I do have a rather good ASUS which is brilliant for multimedia (its even 3D) but not really ideal for work wise plus I find getting it out at clientco doesn't look too professional. I've had Lenovo's (actually Thinkpads) in the past and really like them but until recently they haven't had anything I wanted. This weekend though I found one and ordered it, the latest W530 with 15.6" full HD screen, 32gb RAM and a 750gb 7200 drive and the UMTS module built in. Hopefully this will be the ideal work machine...
    Good choice Darmstadt! Looks like a nice laptop there! I am waiting for mine, will be in 3 weeks though Very efficient over here!

      3 weeks! I went in on Friday and it was ready today (notebook.de)
      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        And that's just an estimate!
