cadder, can you post the links to those deals ?

Vim wouldn't work for ;) I do a lot's of java/grails. I use eclipse

I am thinking of either , Dell XPS 15.6 1080p High definition, or Dell 17 I already have a good desktop, i want it mobile (But i wont be taking it everywhere i go, just occasionally), I dont want to plug seperate monitor, as the goal is to use it when I am in bad, sofa or my terrace.

The offer i mentioned above looks excellent, so i think that will be the better deal then looking for other configurations. BTW, what do you think about XPS - 17 3D, it is available as same prize as $1,109.99 http://www.logicbuy.com/deals/dell-xps-17/26282.aspx Core I7, 3D, 6GB Ram

Nope i am not into gaming that much, but i think if ever i want to play it little, it would support it.

Thanks for the review, I am 28 and with very good eye sight ;)

Thanks, can you please answer is (1920x1080) suitable for a 15" screen, I am afraid it would make text/icons too small. Any ideas, I am currently sitting in another country and doesn't have option to check it myself.

Thanks for the suggestion, Dell XPS 15 supports the display customization, I can customize it to Full HD 1920x1080 Will 1920x1080 for a 15" LCD make text/icons too small ? is it advisable to customize for full HD Here's is a deal http://www.logicbuy.com/deals/dell-xps-15/26283.aspx -...

Yes, 17" looks some what bigger to me.

What are some of the options for me ! can you suggest some laptop with bigger resolution then 768 within $1000

Most of the main stream laptop (15.6 in) comes with 1366 x 768 resolution. The 768 verticle resolution will not be sufficient for programmers on linux. So the question is: Does having graphics card deliver higher resolution even for a 1366 x 768 laptop ?

From below three, which one will you recommend 1. HP DV6T Quad core I7 - FREE 8GB memory upgrade, FREE 750GB hard drive upgrade, 1GB GDDR5 Radeon(TM) HD 6490M Graphics - $999.99 2. Lenovo Ideapas y560p, Intel® Core™ i7-2630QM, 8 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM 1333MHz, AMD Radeon HD 6570M 1GB -...
