It is for a colleague who does a lot of overseas traveling and would like to upgrade from her fairly hefty and rather sluggish four-year-old Dell. I've been doing mostly desktop buying lately, so have not kept up with the PC laptop market. I've been reading the reviews, and I'm hoping for user testimonials here. Anyone have a make and model in their laptop bag that they are dying to rave about? Thanks in advance for any and all advice.
