At about 5.3 pounds, and 8+ hours of battery life (meaning you don't need to carry around an adapter, making it even lighter) the only viable (and inexpensive) options are the Acer Timelines:Lee Kitty Oswald wrote:There was a post above about the advantage of 15 in screens over 13 in ones. Does it seem that more people in law school use a 15 in one? Also, does anyone know if there are 15 in ones that aren't too heavy? Thanks!
