After taxes it's over my budget. And I don't like Intel stuff at all. I've had more hardware failures with Intel based systems than any other after only a year of usage. I bought a Dell XPS with an Intel Core Duo about 2 years ago and all Intel chipset minus the GeForce graphics... motherboard burned out in 6 months.... so no. Toshiba is a no-no as well due to the fact if you want any customer service, even under warranty, you have to pay for it.
I can't get a Fusion either. As stated I need a work horse of a laptop and a netbook level laptop won't cover it. Nice hardware specs for the systems powered by them, but not enough to meet my needs.
The only reason I'm not leaning to the Lenovo is I have to connect to a Network.
