Question:
Available models for Core 2 duo, given specification
Hi,
I have already chosen the specification for the notebook I am going to buy. It should be:
1. 15.4'', glossy, one of the below resolutions:
WXGA+ - 1280x768/800 or 1440x900; Wider viewing version of XGA, good for movie viewing or spreadsheets.
WSXGA+ - 1680x1050; Wider viewing version of SXGA, good for movie viewing or spreadsheets.
WUXGA - 1920x1200; Wider viewing version of UXGA, good for movie viewing or spreadsheets.
2. core 2 duo T7200 (2.0 Ghz, 4MB cache).
3. 2GB RAM at 667 Mhz.
4. Min 256 MB dedicated graphic card.
5. 7200rpm hard drive.
I know the spec. but don`t know which models of which brands I should check to choose the best quality and price.
For the moment I found Acer TM 8210 which is rather pricy. Please advise me which other models I should consider from the brands: Acer, Asus, HP Compaq, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Lenovo, Dell, Sony (not any other).
Thanks in advance

Why not any other brands (because a Compal HEL-80 sounds like exactly what you want)? And where are you looking (USA, Canada, etc.)?

Re: Available models for Core 2 duo, given specification
I will buy it on Taiwan but use mainly in Poland and therefore I need an international warranty. As for Compal I am afraid I won`t find any service points for this brand in Poland.
I will be thankful for any other suggestions:)

Asus Z96J is what you want.

It has 15.4 " Color Shine screen.
256 MB dedicated ATI X1600

Intel T7200
All for $1,500 (+ $49 shipping)
(At least that is the price that I bought it at yesterday)

buy the barebones from mwave and parts at newegg... much cheaper (im at 1308)
Answer:
Re: Available models for Core 2 duo, given specification
The only non-barebone i know that has exactly those specs is the HP nc8430. But it would be really pricey compared to the ASUS barebones that HEartbreaker and hbomb mentioned. If you dont mind a logo-less, simple (but good) looking laptop...i would suggest the Z96J

Check: pl.zepto .com
The 6615wd and the 2425 both suit your needs. The 2425 is the smae as the compal hel-80 but you will get support over here. However the 6615wd has a faster clocked gpu and thus why it costs a bit more.
It may not be big brand stuff but zepto are really good in my opinion. There are a couple of zepto reps on this site who regularly come and help out if you have a problem. Mine is just about perfect and it was good value too. Far better than the acer 8202
