I'm in the market for a 15.4" widescreen notebook that's light and portable yet reasonably affordable (<£600Max).
So far my favourite choice is a Samsung R60 Plus which is £473.95 at Ebuyer.

Any comments about this laptop. Samsung used to be a safe bet but are they still good? The last review I read wasn't entirely complementary. Any other recommendations?
Thanks.
