~~~Introuction~~~ Having been searching for a top of the range entertainment laptop which will last a very long time, i have found it at last. This is a revolutionary laptop, bringing 4 in 1 entertainment to the laptop world. It combines audio, TV, DVD and PC into one exceptional looking unit. Its huge 120gb hard drives are great when it comes to storing music and video or recording live television. It has an Ultra clear, crisp bright screen which provides the best quality viewing experiance and makes playing games feel even better.

~~~Extra description~~~ The Qosmio G20 is a silver finished laptop with has 'Qosmio' engraved on the outside. The inside boasts a spectacular looking shiny black finish which will get grubby with finger marks. The standard keyboard has two speakers either side which are controlled by an orginal metallic wheel which when turned, switches on some rather fancy volume lights just below the keyboard. To the left of the laptop, there is a smal panel just below the keyboard which hosts yet more lights indicting the system status such as hard drive use, power..etc The front of the laptop has a rather nifty looking DVD multi drive which writes and reads a great host of DVDs, so there is no need to worry about whether you DVD or CD will play. You simply slide the CD into the drive. Around the back there is a lock socket so you can secure your laptop to the desk.
The back: S-video out port. This means you can transfer PAL or SECAM data to external devices such as a television. D-video out port. This is so you can connect an external DVD player, video player/recorder or tv and satellite reciever. 2 USB ports which allow you to connect external devices such as a mouse, keyboard, scanner, video camera, PSP...etc Ethernet LAN port to allow wired connections to a network. S-video in port so you can import data from your video camera.
The sides: (left) A modem jack for attatching the laptop to company networks or the internet. Another USB port for external devices. A microphone and headphone jack.
The sides:(right) A firewire port to rapadily transfer files between the laptop and devices such as a video camera. A PC card slot to maximise the laptops capabilities. Its commonly used to insert Wireless cards but this laptop has one built.
~~~Where to buy~~~ The price is around £1300 but can increase with optional extras. It can be bought from major computer stores such as PC World and Dixons.
~~~One final note~~~ This laptop has truely stunning looks. It is a very advanced piece of kit which is more then enough for most users. The TV tuner is a great part of the laptop which isn't avalible on most other laptops.
