I know this isn't directly travel-related (I hope I'm not breaking any rule here), but I thought I'd post here to ask your opinion because a lot of you seem to be rather well-informed about just about everything there is that has a slight connection to travelling.
I'm here, there and everywhere and also due to hand luggage restrictions, I'm looking for an ultra-portable notebook computer. I would like the weight to be under 1.6kg, although the lighter the better. I would also like a relatively long battery life (although not essential), and at least a 12" screen (I do like the weight and design of Sony Vaio with 11.1" screen ones, but they do feel a bit too small for working on some of the things I do).
Does anyone have any recommendation please?
I have been thinking about Toshiba Portege R500, but one of the reviews that I read said that the lid was quite flimsy, which worries me somewhat.
Any help would be gratefully received.
