Hi there. iv been stalking the forum for a few weeks now trying to make up my mind what laptop spec to get and iv finally ordered it!
so i thought id just say hello and to say thanks to all you lovely people who has looked over my spec a few times and given me some very good advice. this forum seems like a really nice friendly place (for a noob!) so i thought id just introduce myself as the noob i am!
iv ordered my Optimus V 15.6" laptop, so now ill have to play the waiting game and prepare to move all my files etc from my 6 year old dell studio 1537. its served me well but lately watching any video, even at 480p, has been very demanding. so im looking forward to watch some multimedia and play some games without to much glitching and crashing.
ill post the spec of my new laptop below.
many thanks
