Core Duo Laptop - <£1000?

[KGB-911]

Firstly, Hello everyone... I havent been around for a while, but i'm here now!

Seccondly, i am looking for a new laptop, not for gaming, just for using the internet and watching DVD's.

But, it has to be powerful enough. Please tell me what you reccomend.


Minimum Specs:

Core Duo 1.66GHz (1.83GHz i would like)
1GB DDR2 RAM
DVD+/-RW (DL)
80GB HDD
On-Board Bluetooth & Wireless network card
15"/17" High Quality LCD

TV Out port & Firewire

All this for less that £1,000

I would like it to have an on board TV tuner aswell. It must be reliable and not a Dell.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know!

i was looking at the sony viao FE21H, but it is only 1.66GHz

Cheers,
KGB

Why not Dell - their Laptops seem to be OK from my experience...

Chris,

My last couple of laptops have been Dell's, i jut think that i want a change Also, i have looked at all the current Dell laptops, and i don't like the look of any of them (i'm not talking about their specs, i talking about looks!)

That is why i am interested in a Vaio - they look good!
