    Hi! I'm between this two laptops:

    1) Acer TM 4001 WLMi, ATI 9600 PM 1.5 GHz, 512 RAM, 40GB (4200RPM), 15.4" TFT, DVD-Dual Price: 1090 € + taxes

    2) Asus M6N ATI 9700 PRO, PM 1.6 GHz, 512 RAM, 60GB (5400RPM), 15.4" TFT DVD-RW Price: 1259 € + taxes

    3) Acer TM 372TCI PM1.5GHz, 512RAM, 40GB (4200RPM), 12.1"TFT CD-RW/DVD ieee1394 drive Price: 1160 € + taxes

    I need it mainly for the university and for my job ( non-high demanding apps, the hardest task would be building applications cause I'm studing computer science, and maybe lower demanding games) I also need it to be lightweighted because I have to carry it from the job to the university and from that to home. I would be interested in the one whose battery lasts much more hours.

    And here is the first question, which brand is better for a laptop, is that Asus or Acer? I mean which one is more durable.

    Next, do you know any laptop in this range of price (1200~1400 € t.incl.) with a 12.1"TFT and a Centrino CPU in Europe?

    Finally, which laptop would you recomend me attending to my needs?

    Uops! I need something to me answered too, is the keyboard of a 12.1" laptop hard to use? I mean is it to small to type fastly?

    Sorry for my english :p
