Please help me spend my money on a new notebook computer :)

I haven't bought a notebook computer since 1998 when I got a Toshiba. Since then I've only had desktops, but it's time to get another notebook.

I'm not looking at high end, as I don't do gaming or complicated graphics.

I believe I'll get a free upgrade to Windows 7 with whatever I buy.

What brands should I be looking at? When I was thinking of getting another desktop, I'd decided on Dell, but now I've changed my mind to a notebook, I'm not sure any more. I was happy with my Toshiba decision, but that was a long time ago now, and I haven't been following stuff.

What shops would you consider? Would you eliminate SC online partners like elive?

Since my desktop is getting old, and I can't afford two computers, I'll be using external keyboard and mouse, and if I end up getting a tiny screen, I'll also use my current desktop screen.

Thank you in advance!

Awww. Of course I use it all the time, but I was hoping for a trusted opinion ... like yours.

If you can track down the lovely SJones, her and her hubby have a computer business and can do some pretty tidy prices on decent machines.

Much cheaper than the stores.

go get a banana and stick it into some nutella it tastes good when you stick it in
