    Laptops..

    Looking at new laptops for the girlfriend..

    She wants a tiny 12" laptop that'll be able to play WoW and cost under $1000 with a decent warranty (her current laptop's screen is cracked and no longer under warranty.. we've been told it would probably be cheaper to just buy a new one).

    I'm looking at this for her.

    Opinions and Input would be greatly appriciated.

    We didn't have that model, but I bought my wife a Sager desktop replacement (ATI 9000 video card, 1 gig memory, P4 3.0 (regular p4 processor), etc) and the thing was a demon. The only reason we got rid of it was the wife complained that the screen resolution was too high and was hard on her old eyes.. ok, I added the old part.

    How's Sager Technical Service?... it looks really good being Lifetime and all (much better than Alienware... sorry I ever bought that thing).

    This is what she has her eyes set on, do you think it would be capable of running WoW fairly lag free? (I'm not so sure about integrated graphics myself, tho her last computer had it and ran WoW).

    Dell.com/outlet is nice as well.

    It is great, I had to call them once for a replacement hard drive. It didn't fail, but it wouldn't but up on occasion and I sent it back and they had it back to me in just a couple of days. Their tech support even emailed me to let me know what was going on through the process.

    I had also purchased the extended warranty from Phillips at the time.

    I'll look around a little more, we've got a month or so before we make our "final" decision.

    Sager definetly sounds like the way to go though.
