Hello everyone,

I'll be headed off to college shortly and I'm looking for the best possible laptop for under $600.

Some of the key features I've been looking for would be..

-Sturdy, well built
-4GB Ram
-250GB+ HDD
-Optical drive
-Multi-touch capabilities
-Strong wireless card for long distance connection

*Multi-touch seems to be a nice new feature, not something I really need though.


I've been looking around newegg and tigerdirect and haven't really found anything. I'm also not sure weather or not to go thin and light, or big and bulky, so no personal preferences there.

I was wondering what you guys thought.

Thanks,

zodiac
