I'm a university student about to start my second degree, after 4 years of electrical engineering, I now move onto applied science in physics and astrophysics, and with that comes the need for a laptop with enough grunt to run 3D applications, such as CAD work, math work, 3D rendering etc., as well as multimedia capability for the road. I have a 2 hour train ride to university each day, so battery life must exceed 2.5hours while using 3D apps (not games). I also like to get away and play games at times too, as well as watch DVD's. So this was also an important consideration. Weight had to be sub 3Kg (6.61 lbs) at least as I will be moving it around a lot. My budget was $2,500 AUD..
