Default Need to find good laptop on ebay
My budget is around $1000 as there is a Windows live search cash back of $250 and a coupon for $100 off as well. That would make a $1000 laptop about $650.

Anyway I am looking for either 13.3 or 14.1 inch screen size, at least 1gb ram and 120gb HDD. At that price range I would also like a dedicated gpu of at least an 8400m.

Preferred brands so far are HP, Asus, Gateway and anything that is sleek and linux friendly.

I am open to suggestions as well.

I am looking at this one so far.

i would be very happy with an hp, they are nice, sleek and i like the idea of a remote but this ebay deal can get up to $350 off a $1000 notebook so I would be in it for about $650 instead of about $950 with that slick deal.

I bought a Dell XPS M1330 on eBay with the Live cash back promotion last night. It was more for the design and weight than for the performance since it came with a 1.8ghz processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 8400GS.
