I am getting a laptop for christmas and i was wondering...?

Question

Ok one should i get a blu-ray drive in the laptop... I haven't been watching blu-ray. I probably would if i got one... The screen is already hd. Also i am getting TV tuner on the laptop. Also the graphis card on it is 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 9200M GS. So im wondering if i should...

Answer 1

First thing, the screen is not HD. HD is 1920x1080, and almost no laptops have a resolution that high.

Blue ray is not worth it, they have HD dvds coming out. Not the failed HDDVD, but regular dvds with the ability to run HD videos. Look it up.

Blue ray disks are also like $40, which is not even remotely worth it.

Thirdly, the 9200m is a terrible graphics card. If you are playing any modern games you will be disappointed.

I think you should get an Asus or a Lenovo. They both have some pretty kick *** laptops. You can get an asus with a Nvidia 9500, a full HD resolution monitor, a load of ram and hdd space, and a great warranty for under $1300.

For that same price, you could get a lenovo T400 or T500, which have ATI 3750s that switch to the integrated card when they arent needed.

They have competitive cpus, ram, hard drives, but they have something that you wont be able to get with any other laptops: 5 hour battery lives and almost instant booting times, thanks to a 9 cell battery and 2gb of intel turbomemory, which holds all of the programs you use the most.

Oh, and they have 1680x1080 resolution in 14" and 15" sizes. Thats the highest resolution you can get on those sizes.
