Had I wanted to purchase a PC earlier this year it would almost certainly have been an Alienware m11x. The price was just right, it was a gaming laptop, it was portable, had HDMI, integrated graphics for non gaming tasks. I still think its stupid that Alienware discontinued it.

So now that the m11x is gone, is there any equivalent laptop that's about 11-13", costs around $1000, is portable and not back hurting brick.

Hi i have an old PC with Pentium 4 in it but no Operating system installed and ive tried my upgrade windows 7 dvd but that dont work which i though it wouldnt been an upgrade version. I was wondering if i downloaded UBUNTU onto a disk and installed that on the pentium 4 machine would it work?. im on Ubuntu website now and the latest version is choose Ubuntu 12.10 and would this work on the P4 or would i have to download a early version of this?.

Thanks.
