BTTT.

take it from me the x10 is :thumbs:

Go buy ur self a copy of PC Advisor, and look at the back as they have 10 super budget, 10 budget and 10 power lap tops all reviewed and rated

some really good stuff there

x20 is the budget one, according to the samsung website

mine's £1399 at the mo, i paid £1600 back in november

We've just got the X20 (i think) in stock, looks great, £999, not sure of the specs though, definetely a Centrino though, newer version of your's i imagine, or next one up :S not sure, higher number is normally better :p

i reckon the sony would be faster 30-60 but the Toshiba would have it easy 60-100.

Really depends what you're going to use it for, but to be honest, I'd never buy a laptop brand new...

Depends it's going to be your main computer, but if you bought a factory refurb or one a year old you could get a pretty decent machine for half the price...

i got a new vaio and it mint.

What are your opinions on Sony Vaio and Toshiba Satellite laptops?
I'm going to be buying a laptop very soon and have been looking at the Sony Vaio PCG-K115Z and the Toshiba Satellite A30-151

Please check the specs out by clicking the links in bold and give your opinions on both.
Any suggestions of other similar laptops would also be great.
Thanks.
