I don't think it's going to be used for gaming, it just needs to be quite reliable, and a fairly large capacity HD (60gb+)
What model did you go for?
Pick up some Laptop or PC magazines and you'll see that usually Acer wins out in comparisons, because of value for money, good quality components, good build quality, long battery life, aesthetics and reliability.
I've been looking around for a laptop, just like you are, and Acer is who I am choosing, after quite a bit of research.
Why an Acer?
What does it have over, say, IBMs or Dells? Just cheaper?
