I don't hate Apple.

They're just a dumb choice for most people.

IBM is going to roll out a tablet PC soon.

quote: Yeah, and you can draw on them or whatever. You don't even have to swivel the screen. It's perfect for notetaking, and OneNote was designed with them in mind. OneNote will even use handwriting recognition, so if you search your notes for keywords, it'll find them when you've written it as well (well, as best it can).

And... Asher didn't tell you one of the more interesting features of OneNote (Which I use a lot on my non-tablet laptop as well--)

-since it's an f*n "notebook", you never need to save--it does it automagically.
-if you record audio with it, and continue to write/type, it'll split and bookmark where exactly the audio was. twenty minutes into a lecture, with about two pages of notes, you can go back to page one, and it'll start playing the lecture from where you ask it to.

OneNote alone is the reason any university student should opt for a PC instead of a Mac. While Apple is worrying about the color of their new PowerBooks, the PC world is actually adding value to the systems.

I'm considering something between: (£799)

http://www.evesham.com/PCs/Info.asp...1F-A906D40E2A47

and this: (£899)

http://www.meshcomputers.com/updated/powerview3ghz.htm

performance wise.
£900 is about the tops i'd want to spend on a laptop that doesn't have on-board graphics as a priority.

I'd more likely go with one of these companies as they are uk based and have shops in london, so i can get a bit of face to face, see if i can bring the prices down a little+up the specs

The second one is a very very hot chip, and power hungry. You wouldn't be mobile with it.
