New Dell Vostro 1510 Laptop

I think you would be better off with the 1440x900 screen. The WUGXA is touted mostly as a screen with 'true HD' since it can support 1080 HD resolution. For the processor you could probably get the T8300 @ 2.4 GHz since it is the newest processor out. You may want to get the lowest amount of RAM possible and then upgrade to 4 GB yourself to save a good amount of money.

 

The Memory i have already purchased. Cost me $60 for 4 gig amazing bargin.
Not sure i can quite go to the 2.4 Ghz CPU as it is aload more ontop of the existing price... I do take your point however..... Would the WUGXA casue issues with gamming n the laptop and if font size is a problem are you not able to change this in settings ?

 

In gaming you can change the resolution since it would take a beast of a card to produce good game play at WUGXA resolution. The T8300 should only be a $125 dollar upgrade which should be canceled out by going from WUGXA to 1440x900.
