This laptop looks really cool - and is great to flaunt. I use Ubuntu 11.10 OS and dont waste time and energy on other memory and resource hogging Operating systems. The 1GB Graphic card is sooooper and more than enough for casual gaming and excellent for browsing and other basic tasks. dont waste your hard earned money on other computers. This is one of the best budget laptops. Only other good alternative is the Samsung RV 409 series with basic config which retails around 23K.
