Hi, first off I wanna say thank you for your help. It is greatly appreciated. Funny that you mentioned the E6500 because I was looking at the E6400. I dont need a blu ray, HDMI out or finger print reader. I would like to have a web cam and back lit key board. The OS would be vista home or business. I would be using the system for outlook, word and excel. I will go to note book review and scheck out the forums. Thanks again
