Can you recommend a small/lightweight laptop?
I am moving out of the country and would like to bring a laptop. The battery on my current model is shot, and the laptop itself is heavy. I want something small and ultra-light. My needs are simple: I play games from time to time and need to be able to develop projects, using Microsoft products. Since, I will be out of the country (S.Korea), I want something reliable. I would also like something reasonably priced (under $1000 if possible). If you need more info, let me know.

Averatec. Great little computer. All the bells and whistles in 3-4 lbs. And it's white, if the color matters to you. It also has a "fan calibration" which makes the computer soooo quiet that you can not even hear it after startup. I am a therapist and it is important that I not be distracted by the fan. You can buy this at buy.com for about 750.00 so it is about half the price of any other small computer. Hope this helps. I would not buy anything else. I bought one for my daughter in college, too.
