Im looking for a small laptop, not something which a 14/15” inch screen. It needs to be a really good spec.
Does anyone know of any laptops which might fit the bill?

whats within reason? sony made the small ones made from carbon fibre that weigh just over 1kg. the one i've seen wasn't particularly impressive and cost close to 2 grand at the time iirc
what exactly do you want it to run?

Dell XPS M1330 off of Ebay.
Mine's got 2.2ghz Centrino, 4gb RAM, 320gb HDD, LED display 1280x800, 128mb GPU.
All for £599. It's not dual core, which is why it's cheaper than the ones on dell.com...

Do you need dual core for laptops? Is there any reason to go for a dual core over a single CPU?....

Only because that's all Dell are offering on the XPS's now. I was just trying to figure what mine doesn't have, and what their ones do...

Wait, just noticed it is a Core 2 Duo processor. If you're buying Dell. Buy on Ebay!
