Laptops

It's quite headache when choosing new laptop, u gotta set a budget which u are afford to pay.. Then u need to find a laptop that suits ur personality... Besides, u need to minimize some specs in order to meet ur budget.. If u found any laptops that are nice, cheap and affordable.. sometimes the brand aren't that convincing... For example, Acer Gateway.. I heard that this brand Gateway was used to be available in the market last time, but due to some reasons it closed down and these 2years back, acer bought it over and put it back into market.. I wonder if this brand trustworthy enuff or not... A lot of people said acer not that good.. Gateway is under Acer, it makes me felt even more uncomfortable with it.. But the specs and the price really attractive..
For example, Gateway NV4801y, it's affordable and cheap as the specs are real good.. core2duo T6500 2.1GHz, 2MB cache, 250GB SATA HDD / 2GB DDR2 RAM, 14" TFT LCD, NVIDIA geforce 512MB, intergrated 8x DVD double layer drive, etc.. cost RM2498 only...
Other than this laptop, I found that ASUS K40AB also quite ok but the problem is it's AMD processor which i dun quite like it as it ll heat up very fast..
Someone recommended me Dell Studio15.. It's damn attractive as well, but it's bulky and heat up very fast too..

Haizzz... Choosing laptop is really a damn headache thing... Need do alot of research and once u target one, I advise to buy it at once.. Because the more u look at them, the more confuse u get and hesitate...
Anyway, I wish someone would recommend me a laptop to buy pls!!!!

1) 3k+ = ????
2) around 2.6k = ????

I heard HP PAVILION DV3-2111TX is pretty good too.. Is it worth buying? the prob is it's only 13" screen
