I didn't said about that, just about your 2nd suggestion. And N55SL is better than the envy model you suggested in every way.

I want to use Windows XP Professional Version 2002 so drivers must be available easily (!).

Samsung has HDMI ports in my price range but is there any other brand I should look at?
Thank you very much for your help and thank god for a site and forum like this.
As my handle indicates I am a rank novice so please understand if I have made impossible demands.:ashamed:

Sorry, didn't realize I was hijacking the thread......thought it would be presumptuous to start a whole new thread. Looks like it just the reverse, actually.

But thanks for the suggestion all the same.
 
@Mac.rock7 and @JuGGa thanks for your valuable suggestions i will relay this to my senior and let him decide.. any more suggestions are also welcome? is it possible to spec one with Dell?

@MACK.rock7 One suggestion, don't post whole config of laptop. Only the core config is needed and will do well. :)
