Did yu look with Dell or Hp? These laptops are also very good. Anyway Vista sucks for games and Windows 7 is little bit better for that.

dell are crap.

Looks like the LG is clearly better in all categories. If you're worried about Vista being stupid, then you can always put Windows 7 on it later. What's the pricetag on it?

actually im just buying the laptop so i can bring some games with me... im not really making it into a gaming laptop because i already have a good PC at home...just a question though... if i add maybe 2 more GB ram into the aspire, will it perform better considering it has a crappy video card?tnx~

not really.

Loonylion · #3dell are crap.

I kind a disagree Loony. I have a Dell for my ICT studies and I got less trouble with my Dell then with my HP...

I've supported dells for the last 8 years, they're crap. My dad has used them for the last 20 years and even he says they're crap.

Maybe I have one of the 'good' ones. The mistook themself and really made a good laptop :p

Good or lucky ?
