My wife is looking for a laptop...

I'm guessing if she is going to be doing a lot of Word Processing a Netbook would not be a good option.

For a full-sized laptop I like the Levenos (formally IBM) on the low-end.

I wouldn't go with the first one here, not enough ram and you really don't want Vista home basic. Second looks really good with 3 gigs of ram and Vista home premium. If I'm not mistaken Lenovo's have a very good keyboard which is probably what she'll need. Solid suggestion Andrew.

The keyboard is going to be the ticket for her as well. Excellent suggestions Andrew and Frank...

The $499.99 one is definitely worth the extra $70.

I agree Andy. She seems to like the price too
