Hi guys,

Well, I'm very tempted to get myself a laptop. The two that are currently tempting me are the Primo Pro and the Primo Edge from the 'custom built' section, so i can get a better CPU in it.

I'd be getting the P8400 (2.26GHz Core2Duo) 4GB RAM... They both have the 9300M GS graphics chip with 256MB dedicated VRAM....

Only difference is the Edge is slightly bigger, 17" screen as opposed to the 15.4" of the Pro. Both run at 1440x900

Edge is cheaper, and has an almost full size keyboard. Pro has no numpad, but how often does that get used, really?

It'll be used for mild gaming when i'm out of the house, I don't mind turning down settings so i can play games like Dragon Age, L4D2 etc.

I'll of course be buying a better mouse with it. And most likely either using XP Pro 32bit, or getting a Win7 64bit to go on it.

Any ideas, suggestions, or opinions?

Thanks.

**edit** I think i should mention that the reason i said xp pro 32bit is because i have a spare license of that around here.
