I’ve already set my eyes on a MacBook for my next laptop purchase but every once in a while, a souped up rig from Toshiba, Asus, MSI or HP would fit my fancy that I find myself reconsidering my initial decision.

Scouting for a new laptop

For some time now, I’ve been pondering on getting a new laptop. I have 3 others wanting to buy my old one so I guess I’ll go ahead scout for a new one with at least a Centrino or a Core Duo, 1GB of RAM, DVD Writer, Card Reader and 12 to 13 inch of screen. Still want them small and can last 6 hours on battery. Hopefully, I could get all these under 70k. :D

So, who are the likely candidates?

MSI Megabook S260 Notebook PC
AMD Turion 64 Processor MT-30
12.1″ WXGA TFT
256MB (upgrade to 1GB)
8-Cell Li-Ion Battery Pack
60 GB Hard Disk Drive
ATI Mobility Radeon X200
DVD±RW Drive
SD/MMC/MS Card Reader
Price: Php69,900 (plus upgrade to 1GB)

Dell XPS M1210
Intel Dual Core T2300(1.66Ghz) / 2Mb / 667Mhz (YONAH)
1GB DDR2@533Mhz (2 X 512MB)
60Gb 5400RPM SATA HDD
12-inch WideScreen
256MB NVIDIA 7400 Graphic Card
Multi-Format Dvd±Writer Dual Layer
Php 83,888

Oh, no, all the rest are too expensive! And I don’t want anything beyond 13 inches of screen. Anybody else have any suggestions?

Maybe I should go with an Apple MacBook 13″ and just use BootCamp.
