Hi,
I'm looking for a new netbook that will also double as a media center. I've copied and pasted the recommended questions as suggested below:
1. What is your budget?
- About £400
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
- Ideally a netbook with a full size keyboard
3. What screen resolution do you want?
- Irrelevant
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
- No
5. How much battery life do you need?
- Irrelevant
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
- Low
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo / Video editing,watching movies, Etc.)
- It's mainly for web surfing, light office work and playing media. The power to do image editing would be useful but not necessary
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
- A decent chunk, because it'll be used as a media centre. Say 160GB or more?
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
- Open to suggestions
10. How long do you want to keep your laptop?
- As long as possible
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
- Ideally I'd a like Blu-Ray player but it's not vital. Otherwise a good quality DVD ROM will suffice, so long as it can cope with a variety of DVD-ROM types.
12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
- Open to suggestions
13. What country do you live in?
- UK
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
- I don't currently have a high definition TV, so it'll need a standard (i.e. not HDMI) TV output as well as audio output to link to my stereo etc.
