    If the Mac is out then my next suggestion would be a Lenovo. I've had three Thinkpads over the years, one when they were still IBM and two Lenovos.

    All have been rock solid, not the prettiest laptops to look at but very sturdy and capable. The Land Rover of laptops if you will..

    Lenovo laptops with prices in Baht:

    Lenovo - Notebook computers
    bibo ergo sum
    If you hear the thunder be happy - the lightening missed.
    This time.

    Woz was out of the picture with the Apple II, and while he's a really nice guy, his amnesia since he's had that airplane accident makes him also rather useless these days. Nice guy, and a decent analog engineer. That's about it.

    OK, I have "told the bitch to get off her ass" and posted your reccomendations - now I shall "await a reply from the bitch whose ass I hope has been got off"

    Once we get some idea of the Bitches preference - then we can move on!

    Thanks again for your help!

    the only specs you need is price, how much you are willing to spend

    the market for laptop is pretty efficient and they usually all match for a certain price range, the OS being the only difference. Of course, avoid VISTA at all cost.

    so ask yourself how much you want to put, like 20,000 THB and from there you can make your comparison very easy between the different brands (ASUS, Lenovo etc...)

    minimum should be the following:

    - FireWire + USB2
    - Core 2 Duo
    - 160GB SATA
    - 14'' or 15'' Screen
    - Wifi
    - 1GB RAM is more than enough, even for PS, unless you are a professional photo editor or have no clue how to run PS

    and again, avoid VISTA !!!

    Butterfly is right, buy a laptop with 1GB RAM only and then post again in 2 weeks to know how to add RAM to your PC. What a genius this guy.

    Haven't we established a long time ago that he's a wannabe french moron? The only issue really is that he passes out blatantly wrong information that might be picked up by newbies who don't know what a cretin he is - though usually after 2-3 posts, it ought to be clear to even the densest newbie...

    gee, I wonder how most users managed to run PS for doing basic things for so many years years when their PC could only take 256MB of RAM

    of course, if you are using a Mac, you need to have 2 GB of RAM just to run that over bloated Finder

    win98 and 2k ??

    1 gig is minimum ok as long as it does not have to share with the graphics chip.

    Not a problem if you plan on running Photoshop v1.0 - works on vintage 1990 configurations, which is, I'd guess, what Butterfly uses and recommends -- which I can understand, after all considering that he's unemployed, and (shall we say) lacking 'means', he doesn't really have to be concerned about being either productive, or efficient (reading his building threads drives that point home further).
