Hi all. I'm looking to get a Dell laptop but I just don't know which one to get. I was looking at the Inspiron 6000, 9300, and 700m. All of them have relatively same features: 2GHz Pentium M, 60-100GB hard drive, burner/dvd-rom combo, 512 DDR ram, XP pro or Media Center Edition, wireless LAN, etc. The problem is I just dont know what size display to get. The 9300 is a 17 inch widescreen, the 6000 is a 15.4 inch widescreen, and the 700m is a 12.1 widescreen; each laptop getting progressively smaller and lighter. The baseball draft is coming up and I need a computer to take on the road with me to maily just surf the net and talk on AIM and maybe play a few games. I think I'm leaning towards the 6000 or 700m, but just can't make up my mind. Any input would be appreciated. Oh, also, they're all relatively around the same price range ($2000 with warranties, etc), so price doesn't matter. Thanks in advance.
