Location - uk (so no newegg stuff can't get it shipped)
im after a laptop mainly for surfing, films, documents and some more programs and idealy good quality hd ect and have modern attachments usb 3.0 ect.
ow and weight is around 2-3kg and size no more than 15.6 inch

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-350V5C- ... rds=laptop - £487 core i7

You should consider craigslist (if you have it where you are at) I just bought a pretty good laptop with tons of programs on it (he was an engineer and I am an engineering student so it came with 2000$ worth of software including rosetta stone spacish) amazing graphics, 6 gb ram and 2.5 ghz intel i 5 processor. Also, it is a sony. I paid 500 usd.....

Acer generally has crappy hardware and poor inner designs.
My choice of the two would be the samsung one and I would reinstall a clean OS without distributor crapware.
