My trusty 4 year old Powerbook 17" is on its last legs and Im planning to replace it soon. I have used it primarily to run Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2010 and never used OS X. I got the machine discounted through a friend who worked at Apple and it has great.

I really would like to replace it for a new one but it really would be a waste of cash, so I am looking for a powerful 15" or 17" laptop that has a half decent battery.

My wife has a Samsung R530 which was very well priced but I am not sure that this is quick enough.

Any suggestions welcome?
 
think I will pop out to a <not say the name here> store for a play and see what is what.

what models of vaio/dell should i look at?
 
I have looked at a lot of laptops and really like the look of the VAIO VPC-EC1S1E which has the spec I am looking for and can be purchased for around the 800 quid mark which is less than half the cost of a decent apple.

Has anyone got any experience of this laptop which appears to be a very good buy?
