    That's cracking value, I'd buy it now, they won't stay in stock long,.

    Anyway, very very few metbooks have HDMI output, and the ones that do, won't output in Full HD or even HD for that matter, it's mostly just Standard Definition they can output content/video at.

    Yeah it has a webcam and mic,.

    It has VGA output, but you can get a VGA to Component(RGB) cable and also VGA to Scart,.

    Yeah **** it i'll buy it. The VGA to VGA makes up for the hdmi. Most new TV's have that port.

    The charging port (when you actually put in the lead at the laptop) is ****ed on my laptop and it was melted away the output port.

    I have to hold it in and keep it in an exact place to keep it charging. Now i could have it fixed (quoted 80 euro) but the bit melted clean off might be tough to patch up. I actually saw smoke a few times. No joke.

    Plus im missing a few letters and it over heats to an extent it shuts off on me so maybe buying a new one isn't such a bad idea. Plus I want a netbook for travelling etc. Im trying to talk myself into parting with the 200 notes. :D

    Thanks for the input Eric. Anything else pass it on.
