Thank you, Steve. I knew you had a Fujitsu but didn't know the model number. I will definitely add that to the list of models to check. Caroline. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Steve Nutt Sent: 10 December 2007 08:10 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Advent Laptops - Any Experiences? Hi Caroline, Have a look then at the Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook P7120. Only 1.3KG I believe, and a lovely little laptop. I have the 7110, and I love it, same weight as well.

Hello Chris and others, Thanks for your replies about Advent laptops. The spec of your Compaq, Chris, sounds very similar to the Advent. Could you let me know how large the screen is? What attracted me to the Advent was its decent spec combined with only a 12.1-inch screen, plus it only weighs 1.9 kg. I am looking for a small and light laptop but with a decent specification, so if your Compaq is also fairly small and light, it would be worth considering as well. Jackie, I presume your HP must be quite large if it has a numeric keypad. That does sound a useful feature, but I think I might be prepared to do without it if it adds a lot to the overall size. Caroline. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Chris Hallsworth Sent: 08 December 2007 16:32 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Advent Laptops - Any Experiences? Hi, don't bother. I've not experienced them myself, but as they're not as popular as, say, Compaq, I wouldn't trust them. Go for a Compaq one instead. I have one, and it runs Vista Home Premium, has a dual core processor, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB hard drive, thus making it a very snappy laptop. Hope that helps, happy shopping. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Caroline Ford" <caroline@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Access-Uk@Freelists.
