Does that Laptop have Widescreen?
I am pretty sure that the w in wxga stands for widescreen. So yeah it would have widescreen.

I would agree with hardware boss that you should check out www.killernotebooks.com and you might be able to get something a little bette rfor a similar price

I'm not gonna use killernotebooks.com, since he's located outside Europe. That means I have to add something like 35% to his prices in VAT (Value Added Tax) and toll. Besides we run at 240 VDC. Not to mention that I'm a dane, and need these three special characters: æ, ø and å.

But the laptop described above should be able to run some of the recent games?

thank you for your replies.

It's a Zepto laptop. Zepto.com. It's a danish manufacturer, so it'll be pretty easy for me if I have any complaints. And 'cause it's danish I get a 2 year warranty, standard.

Another plus, I think, is the design. The 6214W is so stylish, all black.

Boss, what do you think about that Laptop? I wasn thinking of offering one just like that. The 512 Mb is 256 MB hyper memory of course, so it is really 256 MB.

I would feel really bad for the original poster if, going on 7 and a half years later, he had yet to come to a decision on the laptop!
