Hi hi, I need some help as there are just too many models to trawl through!!!
I want to get my gf a laptop for her birthday in April and it needs to be able to do a few things:
Whilst the Vaios look nice her last one was a Vaio and we werent happy with the lack of driver support from Sony on windows 7 or its longevity (5yrs then dead). I'll consider any brand if you can recommend it.
Thanks very much in advance this will be a big help as I've not got time myself to go through all the websites and models to try to find the right ones, so a reduced list would be VERY useful.

I want to get my gf a laptop for her birthday in April and it needs to be able to do a few things:
- HDMI - output at 1080p without lag or stuttering
- Used for web browsing, streaming TV shows and connection to TV for HD and Full HD mkv, etc.
- Built-in wifi
- No need for DVD drive although it is a bonus
- Very small, light and thin (10" up to 13.5" max and if on the larger size of the scale must still be slim and light)
- Preferably white, soft/pastel pink or something stylish
- HDD - I have a spare 2.5" 250GB hard drive so perhaps space for a second HDD but not essential, and probably best if i dont have to dismantle it if it voids the warranty.
- Not concerned whether or not gfx is independent or onboard mobo (though I expect it will need to be onboard at the lower end of the size scale) as will not be used for gaming, just as long as it can handle HD playback
