Oh.. I have a Thinkpad. I love it for it's speed. However the keyboard is fragile.

I loved my Dell Inspiron 8500. I got it when it first came out and is now obsolete but the keyboard is unequalled.

I shall come back to this hub when I get a new one.

My son has 8. ASUS N61JQ-X1 16-Inch Versatile Entertainment Laptop. Good choice then, coming from your recommendations!
