    Wanted: Laptop - Core i7, 1tb HDD, 8GB RAM £800

    I am a freelance web designer and looking for a new laptop for work, and possibly a bit of gaming. Here is what I am after:

    Processor: Intel Core i7 (or equivalent)
    RAM: 6-8GB
    HDD: 1TB-2TB
    Size: 16" plus
    Budget: £800
    BluRay drive would be nice, not essential.

    I have found this: http://www.dabs.com/products/lenovo-...54600000&src=3

    But, im not to keen on Lenovo, and spec isn't exactly what I want.

    Does anyone have any other suggestions? Any help would be massively appreciated.

    EDIT: Just found this HP Pavilion - http://h40059.www4.hp.com/uk/homelap...erience=direct. Any feedback?

    Dan

    Why not Lenovo? they make fantastic laptops, far better than HP do
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?

    hi,
    In my experience, i have found Dell to be the best in terms of Quality and customer service. It is a great machine. For web designing and stuff, 15-inch would be fine. And for Long battery life, Good Graphics card, Sharp display, i recommend these models.
