Recomendations for laptop with HDMI out.

[geezer]

I have a colleague who want to get a laptop with HDMI out so that he can amongst other hook it up to his 50" Samsung plasma to watch movies etc. Any recomendations?

My wife's cheapie dell inspiron has hdmi output, as well as my HP 8710w. It seems to be pretty standard these days?

Just seen that the Lenovo U350 is available. It has HDMI out, 4GB RAM, 320GB HD, and the low-voltage Core2 Solo 1.2 or 1.4GHz processors. Even says LED backlit display. Not sure how it will handle HD playback from things like MKV files, etc. I'm no laptop fan, but this little thing seems well sexy as a netbook "upgrade".

Sony VAIO FW VGN-FW45GJ/B

it costs about R13 000-R14 000, but has a 2.53ghz cpu, and best of all it's got an HD4650 in it, so you should have noooooooo issues when going hi-def
