New Laptop

[marty]

Ok Peeps... I'm looking for a new laptop, around £300-£400 and was wandering what make would be best. I'm wanting a long battery life....My current Samsung R20 lasts approx 2 hrs and also as most laptops do now Built in Wireless Lan.
I use a Usb-Serial cable and have found Vista not compatiable...
I've looked at this : Samsung Netbook NC10 Ultra Portable Laptop in Black NP-NC10-KA02UK - Laptops Direct

Although it has no Cd/Dvd drive I could eventually buy a Usb one..
Also has anyone dealt with this company?
Thanks for the advice

There has been a recent thread on netbooks, it mentions the NC10. Perhaps you should have a read of this? It seems a number of DW users have one.

got a sony vaio from PC world for £399. In the business section. Just blag it.
2mhz 250gb storage 3gb ram, vista HP, works a treat.
