Hey all, im looking for a laptop, which will mostly be used for Illustrator and Photoshop work, but the option for a good graphics card is also something i would be very keen on. Was looking at some Sony VAIO ones but i remember seeing some reviews that didnt turn out to be very good. Fujitsu-Siemens and Acer seem to have some good laptops, but ive never heard of Acer so im worried about their reputation. Not looking to spend over £900, im very open to any cheap shops and good deals, been looking on shoplaptop uk but prices dont seem to be any better than anywhere else. Any help appreciated, thanks

(oh and from what ive seen Vaio usually surpass every other make on battery life, so that could be handy although its not totally necessary)
One im interested in : (however its only 1.8ghz, but ive seen others with 3.2ghz so does it being a Turion make up for this, and if so, why? , i know AMD usually dont rely on ghz to measure the speed, im running 3500+ atm and it clocks in at around 2.2 ghz but with very little difference to a pentium 4 with 3 ghz.)
