ORIGINAL: MajFrankBurns Lol everyone wants my job. I would be willing to trade it for a taste tester at a beer brewery though. Being a taste tester may turn out to be an ascetic life. I saw a doc about a beer tester in a German brewery, he could not smoke and he did not get more than a few sips of beer, plus he had to watch his food, in order not to kill his sense of taste. Btw, let me know what laptop (with what video card) you got (once you have it), plus how the performance of its card turns out. Get one that has a dedicated video card (with its own memory), avoid shared memory versions (even ATI has such cards). From what I read in forums, the ATI HD4200 and similar models are pretty disappointing performance-wise, you may have to play 3D games with lowest detail settings, and I'm not sure if - even on low details - the frame rates are enjoyable. You should do some research on the net, for speed comparisons and regarding the ability of low budget laptops to display 3D games with acceptable frame rates.
